The news says the average is down a penny but the stations near me are
still the same from what I can tell. I would like to see it dip, even
if only for a few days because I am down to my last couple cans of gas
for the boat.


The truck showed up this morning and actually sold me the diesel for 3
cents less than yesterday's quote, 750 gallons at $3.66. That's 30
cents cheaper than the quote I got from Ballards Oil at the Ft Myers
Beach shrimp dock. They said that today's price was up 12 cents
however for delivery tomorrow. That's a lot of price volatility.


So you just spend $2700 on fuel for your boat.. you must be
middle-class.
