Diesel prices by city or state

headed out in a day or two. Ihven't used Gas Buddy in some time.
It is different now and cannot get diesel prices by station.
Tried AAA and no luck with it either.
What source is everyone using to locate diesel fuel stops along their route with the lowest price?????
  • Gas Buddy might have a new/different website BUT still has option of selecting Diesel Fuel
    (drop down menu)

    Gas Buddy
  • There is a drop down menu under the "current location" box to switch between fuels. You can select from gas, diesel or E85.

    I’m still able to put in a city, change to diesel or even select the map.
  • Check out Trucker Path app. Set up for truckers but does list current prices.
  • Gas Buddy has always and still does show diesel prices. Just select the appropriate drop-down option. The Flying J app shows their prices (too high but very convenient).
  • Some thing is wrong with Gas Buddy??? ,after zooming in , the prices are so small you cant read it
  • I have found that people do not update the diesel prices very frequently in gas buddy, and very often there are no diesel prices shown because the prices are too old.

    The bottom line for me is, "it is what it is." I fuel up when I need it, and don't sweat out paying a few pennies per gallon more if I have to. It's just less stressful for me.

    That's almost as true for gas as well. However, generally, if you are looking for pricing in the area you will get a pretty good feel. For diesel I am generally going to pay the higher Flying J price and their website is very accurate. I don't need a $1000 scrape in the side of my bus to save $0.10/gallon (or $.30)!
