    Word from an excellent source is diesel will be going up by 15-20 cents per gallon over the next couple of days due to the unrest in Libya and Egypt.

    F'n figures. Any excuse to jack up the prices. Didn't realize the US was buying oil from Libya and Egypt.

    Fill 'em while ya can.




    (Yeah, I know this will be merged with Ms. Bullhaulerswife's thread, but I wanted to call attention to it. Thanks.)

    We don't, we buy oil on open markets where the price always goes up ...

    For example ... when some sheik has a hangnail.

    Europe gets more oil from Libya - though the US refines a lot of it to be shipped back overseas.

    They might be doing the same there as here.. Putting it in "storage" or "reserve".

    I am tired of these Mid-East countries dictating our oil price's.

    DRILL ANWAR ALREADY!!! Sheesh.. :biggrin_25521:
