Diesel prices in the NW these days ??
 
RW Salnick said:

Diesel #2: $4.99/gallon

Sales tas *NOT* included. Including sales tax makes it just about
$5.50/gallon.


For trip planning purposes, I'd budget $6(USD)/gal.

You might get lucky and find that prices have dropped by the time you
leave.

10% sales tax?


Yup. In Seattle proper, the tax is 9.8% I think. It's close enough to
10% to ignore the difference.

I looked it up - you're right: 9%. The marina fuel station has been
pocketing the hiway fuel tax forever too... That is, they are selling
untaxed fuel for the same (or higher) price as the taxed fuel on shore.

I bought #2 diesel at a Seattle gas station yesterday for $4.69/gallon.
I'll be buying more, ten gallons at a shot, and hauling it down the dock.
