Tank wagon delivered gas to the farm this week. Was $3.44 a gallon east central Illinois. Went to a tractor show in Elnora IN yesterday and paid $2.89 in Linton.
 
Mornin hillbilly, good to hear. In response to your report and for history only, gas price versus time in my area is as follows. When I left Bloomington headed to the Elnora Indiana tractor show it was $3.39 still high,,down some from the beginning 2021 four dollar range,,much higher than the years prior to 2021. Of course prices vary in different areas, I’m only reporting the price in my area (not far from you) no more no less. It is what it is, no problem for many of us older settled gents.

Pretty good and fun show despite fairly warm weather but it’s summertime in Indiana it gets hot here and weather can change quickly.

It’s always good to hear when prices come down yayyy thanks for posting hillbilly !!!!

Have a good day everyone wherever you’re located. Best wishes and God Bless

bought some farm dyed gas today for 99 cents a litre. long time since it less than a dollar.
Gas buddy said we were about fifty cents cheaper than a year ago labor day and the gas is lower.

Some are predicting we are heading towards a recession.

Thanks John. This is my favorite show. I really enjoy watching the guys on the sawmill. They make it look so easy compared to some other shows.

Filled up the Roadking for $2.78 yesterday.

That said, I do not worry about prices, it's something I have about zero choice in if I want to get paid. 57 miles one way everyday, so twice a week no matter what I am driving.

Election time. The left lowers the prices in an attempt to make them look good to votors. I have never heard of dyed farm gas here. For fun here is what we pay for regular.

I hear ya. In all my working career I've never driven less than 60 miles a day, and for most of it, it was more than that. So buying gas was just something you did, regardless of price. Didn't always like it, but there was no choice.

This morning it was $3.149 here for regular. We buy the E88 15% ethanol, which is 15 cents a gallon less than that.

My calculator says that comes to about $2.77 USD per US gallon. Did I figure this out correctly? My high school physics teacher (Mr. Radomsky) would have a cow if the units didn't cancel out properly. I think they do ...

(0.99 CDN dollar/litre) x (0.74 US dollar/CDN dollar) x (3.78 litres/US gallon) = 2.77 US dollar/US gallon

Please explain how the left lowers the price. Neither side has the ability to do that. What is happening because this current administration has allowed record drilling there is a huge supply therefore prices are dropping. Basic economics, it’s called supply and demand.
 
Its all part of the green movement. Raise the prices until people buy electric cars
Except at election time. California where I live is ran by idiot D's and we have the highest fuel taxes which are going up again in a few months to almost $2 per gallon.

Cant run a diesel in this state that was built before 2011. My buddy cant register his diesel motorhome here any more.

The currant dummy in charge on his first day even said he was going after fossil fuels.
Where would you prefer living Chris? OK, somehwhere in the USA of course, but where in the USA?

My 1999 diesel motorhome is registered here in CA So I think you better check your source.

This article shows that CA is 2nd in gas tax.
Also once again please provide proof of the $2 tax.
I live there too and think the tax and gas prices are ridiculous. But what I don’t understand is if you dislike it that much why don’t you move somewhere else?
