Hmm...
They don't want to make the truck drive unhappy.  If food don't move, people don't eat. It up over a  $ in my area now thanks to Usurper.™
Diesel is 3.49 here at the lowest A far number have it over 3.65

Just paid $2.59 yesterday for Diesel in Danville, VA.
Regular gas is $2.44 at the same place.

That's till up from last year, when Diesel was $1.59~1.79.  It we had a couple of weeks where Diesel was as cheap as gas - nobody was going anywhere, and if you wanted to, everything was closed up.

Diesel in my area just jumped 25¢ from last week, it's now over 3$ per gal.

Drove to Knoxville, TN and saw most Diesel prices around $2.99~3.05 a gallon.   
A lot of signs has that 6 cents cheaper for cash along the interstate...
.. but, there was one Flying J, $3.05 for Cash & $3.40 for credit!

We found a couple of places @ $2.79 and filled up.

Diesel prices in southern Virginia are $2.57~2.89 while Regular gas is in the $2.45~2.79 range.
I gas up my work truck 3-4 times per week, in Roanoke, Lynchburg, Danville areas.  Danville is usually the cheapest, Roanoke the highest by a few cents.

Oddly enough, the Sheetz stations' fuel prices vary widely - where I gas up the most, and prices between them in the same city, even a mile away vary... wonder why that is?  I don't know!  You'd think 2 stations, a mile or two apart, same ownership, I assume - would be sort of synched up in prices, but seldom are.

Same here with the grocery store I buy gas from. There are 4 stores in the county that sells gas and the prices vary. I am thinking it is a sound business practice that allows the local store manager to set prices based on area competition rather than big brother dictating pricing.

Don't forget the high taxing of gas.
With all these lawyers with cameras on the street i'm shocked we have so much crime in the world.

There is constitutional law and there is law and order. This challenge to law and order is always the start to loosing our constitutional rights.

What everyone needs to realize is that much of it is due to the value of our currency declining. Of course becoming a net importer instead of the net exporter of energy that we were under Trump has a drastic impact too. It's a great step in the effort to destroy a nation, our nation.
Crazy but not stupid!

Unleaded Regular in SC Midlands is $2.56 - $2.70 a gallon.  Diesel is $2.90 - $3.10 a gallon.  Gas price increase is now at $0.70 per gallon more than at the end of the year.  This includes an additional $0.02/gallon tax increase by the state.

My last field job was the state of SC. Had the lowest gas prices around as I live in NC. However, SC has raised its gas taxes and prices and now much closer to NC.
