I'm going to start looking a little closer... I've always been that way tho. Just pull in and fill up with out paying attention what the price is because I need the fuel anyway.... I always stop at the same Speedway a couple miles away from my house..

Anyone know what brand of fuel Meijers sells.. I've heard they have good diesel and I always see trucks filling up all the time so I figure their fuel cant get old.

For sure...it's all about shopping for the best price. Wish Costco sold diesel.

Swartz Creek, huh? I was at the Hooters on Miller Rd. last night! Friends are in a bowling tournament across the street this weekend.

Seriously, what the he** is going on with diesel prices? It is up $1.00 in places from about 2 months ago.

I found ONE place out driving all around yesterday that had $3.99 and I was excited. Went home and came back with the other truck only 2 hours later - they were up to $4.25. A $0.26 increase!!!???

So the media has already told us that it will be $4 for gasoline. Will diesel be $5.50?

I'm very happy to still have the old '97 Taurus. It sat around a LONG time when I got the trucks. Now I'm sure it will hit the 200,000 mark sooner than later. At 195,800 now.
