Oil Prices
Gasoline and diesel fuel prices have dropped significantly due to the oil "glut," but the price of engine oil has remained basically unchanged. Does anyone know why?

I filled up yesterday at $2.699 per gal for diesel fuel, regular gas was $2.999
And that here in southern Cali-funny-land
I can get ARCO diesel for 2.69 a gallon on Devonshire and Sepulveda in the SFV, but the lines are long, long, long, and it's a hassle going in and paying cash, then going in and getting change to top off my fuel tank.
My logs indicate the best mpg's being acheived on Unocal and Chevron diesel... sometimes Texaco gives me uber MPG's per fill up also. The diesel fuel sold in UT, ID, MT and WY is the good stuff, really really good stuff, very high MPG's almost every fill up. Conoco, Phillips, and Sinclair, all of them good.
I refuse to buy Shell diesel fuel... 7 to 10% loss in MPG's, it is cut with some sort of crap. It's also the same fuel Kroger, Food King, Ralphs, all the grocery store chains carry for fuel also, despite the grocery discounts offered at 20c a gallon, I don't find any value being gained.
