RD, The price for reg at 76 westley jumped to 1.85, 0.10c between grades, could not see the diesel price from freeway. The Joes Travel Plaza there had reg. 1.88 diesel 2.02. westley used to be the high price leader in the area until the JTP got built approx 2 yrs ago, now 3 stations compete to be lowest, JTP, Beacon, and now the 76 station. Just for the record, if you were interested that 100 octane 76 gas, it is not available in westley. I have to go to the patterson 76, on hiway 33. I have never had a huge mpg drop because of different fuels, dont own a diesel either.

MWQ, I just paid $2.04 a gallon for diesel at Flyin "J" in Ripon. They are "usually" the cheapest around. I am a firm believer you get what you pay for. I bought cheap diesel from the before mentioned station. I saw my mileage drop as much as 4 mpg[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] With Flying "J" I'm getting just over 15 mpg around town[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

That area along I-5 in Westley and Patterson have grown[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
My experience is, when we use AM/PM gas in our cars, the fuel mileage stinks. We usually get Chevron fuel. For some reason, our cars/trucks seem to run better[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Best diesel mileage I ever got was from Chevron[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] but around here, Chevron doesn't sell diesel[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
LP gas is a whole other story on cost[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] Local Shell charges 2.29 a gallon[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Flyin "J" is $1.69 a gallon

I know I haven't bought am/pm gas in over 5 years myself[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Wife does every great once in awhile (she likes their coffee) and I'm all over her for it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Buying gas that is[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

I forget who actually owns them[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]I'm pretty sure it's a foreign company though. And, if I remember correctly, it has like 8-10% ethynol [sp]in the mixture.
