BA> Actually it seems to be going up. Diesel is presently a bit over As warmer weather approaches, the price of everything will rise until the consumers take a stand against this. BA> $3.50/gallon, and #2 diesel is the same thing as #2 heating oil - BA> altho' the heating oil has a dye added to make the tax people happy (one BA> does *not* want to be caught with dyed diesel in one's semi tractor), BA> heating oil is not subject to a motor vehicle fuel tax and OTR diesel BA> is. I know a fellow with a tractor. I lived on his land for awhile after the storm of 2005 and I tried in vain to convince him that the reason his tractor wouldn't start, let alone run, was because it had been sitting out in the weather for two years with the same fuel in it. Efforts to convince him to replace the old fuel with fresh fuel fell on deaf ears. He's convinced there is something else wrong. BA> Gas (10% ethanol) is right at $3.00/gallon and E85 is 2.65/gallon (up BA> over a dollar in less than a year). Plain unleaded is about BA> $3.15/gallon. It's heading that way here. BA> I think I need a hayburner... That'd work. (-: I hope you're able to survive the weather you're currently having. I wouldn't be able to. Regards, Roger ...
