Last Friday, here in Seymour, reg gas was still $3.29, by Friday noon, it went up .60 cents to $3.89, with diesel at $4.29, even tho I get better fuel milage with my diesel, the .40 difference in the cost of a gallon, more than justifies still pulling with the diesel, but the distance traveled, vs the payout will still keep me close to home, I know, it effects the "pine knots" also, as well as the promoters, and with what I picked off the radio a week ago, gas prices here in Indiana are now expected to top $4.25 early this spring, so it's a crap shoot either way, I'm sorry to say, the folks in Washington still don't have a clue about economics, they aren't bothered by the cost of energy, they just use it, so it isn't a big thing, no wonder we can't get back to being close to even, it's all based on the cost of a bbl of oil, everything you eat, watch, or take for granted, when oil goes up, everything else follows, and we are racing in Indiana, or most of us are, California has it's own problems.
