Default Fuel prices are dropping

We drove back from Tampa today and saw several gas stations at $3.85,
down from 4+ last week. Later I did some price shopping for diesel on
the telephone since we are getting ready to head north for the summer
on the trawler. After the first couple of calls I was expecting
something close to $4 but literally struck oil on the fourth call.
We've got a truck arriving at the house tomorrow morning for
$3.69/gal, all taxes included.

That's off-road diesel with fewer taxes. It was $3.90 at the marina two
weeks ago when it was $4.29 on the road.
