Gas prices

[DadSmith]

Neighbor is switching to propane for his heat.
He said it's cheaper than natural gas now.

We do the beer can chicken on the grill, then strip the meat and boil the rest for soup adding garden veggies. It makes two meals.

I turned my furnace off today, hopefully until fall. It's hard for me to gauge my actual gas cost, because Citizens Energy also took over water/sewer. I'm on a well, but last year I was forced to get rid of my septic tank and hook up to sanitary sewer. The cost of doing that is now included in my bill, along with the "usage" charge.

And that saves you gas?

Edit: Nevermind... I see that in true INGO fashion, the conversation had turned to the cost of chickens.

 

[snapping turtle]

I got chicken and gas today. Costco for both but I just paid it and tried to forget it.

Yes everything here changes as the tread progresses one of the reasons I like it.

Of course. The grill is propane, not natural gas.

I just checked and propane is about half the price of gasoline right now. I wonder what mileage a car on propane gets per gallon of propane?

Maybe for large volumes (like for home heating), but I just filled a 4 gallon tank and it was just under 4 bucks a gallon for propane. But since I have a punch card from ACE hardware, my next tank is free.

If I could shove a line up that gas bag obiden's ***, I would consider switching from charcoal...at least for a while.

I would not be attending any cookouts at your house if you did that... Just sayin'...

Jumped to $4.40 today. 40 cents in a week. $5 by Race Day?

This probably doesn’t bode well for us diesel truck owners and anyone else that gets goods delivered via diesels…

Are you saying shipping diesel to the EU to replace the millions of barrels a day from Russia will mean we have a shortage?

Granted we are still shipping more diesel to south America than we are the EU,but not for lack of trying on our east coast.

U.S. Fuel Exports Are Draining Domestic Diesel And Gasoline Supplies | OilPrice.com

Record volumes of fuel are being exported from the Gulf Coast, which is draining domestic supplies of both gasoline and diesel

Also this bit of information. In short India is buying Russian crude(at a discount),running their refineries as hard as possible,and selling the "clean"(non sanctioned) fuel(mostly diesel and jet) to the EU. Problem solved right lol?

EU picks up more oil and gas from Middle East and US, while more volumes from West Africa and Latin America make their way to US

I don't drive a diesel truck but I do have a tractor that uses diesel. Last year I thought a bit about maybe getting a 100 gallon or so tank to store diesel. It's a pain to have to fill up a bunch of jerry cans when I run out. I decided not to. Now I wish I would have. I haven't had a hard time finding off-road diesel. But the price really sucks. If I can't get it then a lot of projects I have planned this summer just won't happen.

 

[Leadeye]

The government has taken a negative view towards diesel for some time which surprises me as it's certainly a more efficient fuel.

 

[DadSmith]

Last night in Versailles diesel was $5.40 a gallon.

"On Monday, diesel prices rose further to $5.321 per gallon, according to AAA."

Only one or two stations on my regular route are less than 5.30 now. Some are as high as 5.49.

I'd have to wonder if having one of those tanks wouldn't be a thief magnet now...especially if it were setting somewhere that's not monitored routinely.

I had a little under half tank. Let’s go Brandon

No sticker?




I am disappointed.
