pretty soon guys will be removing their lift kits and putting white framed oakleys up for sale on ebay

Sell em both together, and they should be able to buy enough fuel for a 2 hour road trip.

Same thing happened to propane back in the day when everyone was adding the conversion kits to their vehicles, then prices of propane went up.

It's supply and demand the more diesel trucks, cars etc out there the higher the climb. When I had my first diesel in 99 we were paying 32 cents a litre big difference 12 years later I tell ya.

Yeah we were paying about 47 cents for gas then. It is not supply and demand though. North America is the only place in the world that is primarily gasoline powered. Everywhere else has diesel cars, small diesel pickups, etc. not us. It is easier and cheaper to make diesel, but they charge us more for it....

the new low sulphur diesel fuel requirements have driven the refinery costs above that of gasoline. bunker fuel is cheaper to produce than gasoline, but the stuff everyone is complaining about isn't.

I agree the switch to ULSD raised production costs somewhat, but I think the overwhelming demand for gasoline causes more issues. Refineries focused on supplying the gasoline instead of diesel, refineries shut down...

Don't forget those flat brimmed hats cocked to the side can fetch a pretty penny.

Suncor Hydrogen supplier back up and running. Cardlocks and bulk plants should be building inventories over the next few days. In 4-5 days should be back to normal.
