RV Fuel Issues & Prices - Post 'Em Here!

US wholesale gasoline prices drop 11 cents on the futures market June 19, 2009 for delivery on July 9, they are now about $1.93US a gallon. They should keep dropping unless the shipments get disrupted by some action that would effect supply. We should be back to around $2.50US a gallon for summer. Those 8 MPG RV's now cost about 34 cents a mile to drive and it should drop to just over 31 cents per mile for gasoline. Diesel owners are the big winners this summer, as diesel remains less tha gasoline, and they get about 30% better MPG. Diesels now cost about 21 cents a mile to drive, that's about 33% less than it cost to run a gasoline RV. We are just about a year away from all the fuel pumps for on the road diesels to have only ULSD. Trains can still use the LSD until 2025. Off road diesel will also be just ULSD but will still be a different color than on road diesel, as it is illegal to run on road vehicles with off road diesel. That's because off road diesel is not subject to all the taxes that on road diesel is.
