Prices jumped from a nice low in the past week. Locally in N. VA it was 3.899 for the longest time, now out of the blue its 4.099 average and your are lucky if you find something under 4 a gallon.
Given that the US is now exporting more ULSD then it has since the required move to ULSD production for road vehicles, it is pure greed both at the national level and state level.
The gas tax change in VA actually did not change a thing for us, but did hit the companies that where using wholesale fuel as a way to save. The gas tax now taxes all wholesale fuel purchases rather then retail purchases, that of course then gets passed on to retail customers.
