Dtret Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Just kidding, but this isn’t normal at a “ regular “ gas station “. Truck stops yes. Just thought it was depressingly humorous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boyte Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Unbelievably ridiculous, The price of fuel has caused many owner operator truck drivers to fold. Just imagine fueling up 2/ 250 gallon diesel tanks. A lot of companies are forced to close shop just because of the price of fuel. Many families are going hungry and doing whatever it takes,( legal and illegal ) just to feed their families. Can't help but to think about what we were paying for diesel just 2 really long years ago !!! I for one am ready for a big Change !!! November can't get here soon enough !!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott S. Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 With conversions and exchange rates, that works out to about $1.65/liter Can. That's pretty cheap these days..... ;( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragCat Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 When I got home from Carlisle, 111.45 to fill up the truck, 22 gallons 😡 Last week 66.20 for 15 gallons . Just crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Mike you are 100% correct!! Wait until winter when you read/hear about people who are going to have to choose eating or keeping warm??? There will be many more needless deaths this winter. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cny first gen 71 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I spent $120.00 to fill my truck before my trip and $100,00 to get back home I average about 8.8 mpg pulling the trailer. Ouch, that sure adds to the price of a vacation. I feel so bad for the owner operators out there struggling to get by. Yes we all [censored] about the price of everything but let's face it it's all because of gas prices! Let's hope for change soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy's Auto Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 After 320,000 miles I traded in my Duramaxx on a new Power Wagon. Diesel always got 16 MPG +. The new MOPAR is showing 11.8 after 250 miles. Time to buy a siphon hose I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve G Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 My monthly gas bill is horrific, but I did get to have fun with it a few months ago when a lady in a beat up old faded red Prius with a bunch of political and climate change bumper stickers on her rear bumper was complaining about gas prices.... I told her “eh just another number in my bank account”... Ever see an angry Prius owner? 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
