Diesel now cheaper than gas in CA
Not sure if it's just CA but was noticing for the first time in a long time diesel was less than gas when I filled yesterday.
How are prices comparing in other areas?

Right now it is mainly CA because gas prices have spiked at a record pace this month due to a perfect storm while diesel has remained relatively stable, so now diesel is cheaper again. I don't normally complain about gas prices but man, it is up $1 per gallon in 1 month while oil remains low. Thanks to CA boutique blend, seasonal maintenance, labor strikes, and oh that explosion a couple weeks ago, our supply of refined gas is very tight.
Oh and the explosion was in a part of the refinery that was off line so had no effect on production. Just an excuse to raise prices. The boutique blend is for gasoline so what their excuse for diesel prices to go up- Today regular is $3.09 and diesel is $3.05.
- Just fueled up this morning here in West Michigan on the lakeshore. Reg U/L gas is $2.19/gal and premium diesel is $2.63/gal. Was approx $.20/gal less last week. You do get an additional $.05 to $.10 discount per gal off all fuel prices when using their credit cards. Walmart, Meijer, etc CC. Premium diesel is the only grade Meijer sells at their nearly 200 stations which is actually Marathon fuel as is their gasoline. Walmart fuel/diesel is Murphy Oil fuel and is a non-premium grade.
- Diesel $2.89-$2.99,Reg $2.41
- Didn't really check the price of diesel but our regular, credit card price, has gone from $2.49.9 to $3.45.9 in about one month. We are in northern calif.
Quite a jump. - Nickel to a dime difference between Unleaded and ULSD here. And that's + or -. Sometimes Diesel is cheaper, most of the time regular unleaded gas is cheaper.
- we are camping in myrtle beach....from sunday to monday gas went up 10 cents a gallon. They claim refinery issues because of the cold in the north....all crap...just another way of them shafting the public....and our wonerful politicians do nothing about it.
- Just noticed today in a small town in Northern CA named Healdsburg. Diesel 3.14 Reg 3.24 Prem 3.44. Fugettaboutit.
- Gas still much cheaper than diesel here in the east.
- In Nova scotia, plus fuel which is what I use in my 2011 and 2006 HEMI's is $1.149 while diesel is $1.184 where I fill up with a card lock. Not sure what it is at the normal gas stations.
