I've driven my "new" beater about 200 miles and as is my habit, I fill at 200 miles and ignore the gas gauge. Only took 6 gallons.

Under $3.00/gallon at Costco this week with their discount. We also have a month-long $.25 state gas-tax "holiday."

(My only concern about the "holiday" is the revenue the state will loose right now because of this- and that the hurricane will cost Florida $billions to bail out the homeowners insurers that have recently gone under, and others that undoubtedly will go under quickly with all the hurricane claims coming in. This will, in turn, lead to the state having to pay the defunct insurers' claims with state funds...)

I am not Hockey da (thank God).

But, I am wondering if its production issues- because of conversion to Winter gasoline production at the refinery. I do think the recent hike in oil prices is a factor. It could even be it be that transporting oil to relatively landlocked places like Ohio and there is more expensive. Among other economic factors...

Keystone pipeline...

We have our own oil and we can be a net exporter of that oil. Policies matter.

U.S. crude stockpiles surge on reserve releases; distillates draw down



Oct 13 (Reuters) - U.S. crude stocks rose by nearly 10 million barrels last week after another big release from government reserves, while distillate inventories fell sharply, the Energy Information Administration said on Thursday.

Crude inventories (USOILC=ECI) rose by 9.9 million barrels in the week to Oct. 7 to 439.1 million barrels, data showed, compared with analysts' expectations in a Reuters poll for a 1.8 million-barrel rise.

The bulk of that bump in commercial stocks came from a 7.7 million-barrel release of reserves from U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), though inventories without those reserves also rose.

Distillate stockpiles (USOILD=ECI), which include diesel and heating oil, fell by 4.9 million barrels to 106.1 million barrels, their lowest since May, versus expectations for a 2 million-barrel drop.

"Ongoing concerns on the diesel front is warranted with another 4.8 million draw there," said Tony Headrick, energy market analyst at CHS Hedging.

That distillate drawdown came as heating oil demand is due to rise as winter months approach. Stockpiles of the fuel have remained tight due to heavy demand worldwide and refinery issues in both the United States and France.

U.S. exports of petroleum products rose last week to their highest on record at 7.1 million barrels per day, government data showed.

U.S. refiners have been running at above-average levels for this time of year to boost inventory levels, though they pulled back on activity last week.

Refinery crude runs (USOICR=ECI) fell by 278,000 bpd in the last week, while refinery utilization rates (USOIRU=ECI) fell by 1.4 percentage points to 89.9% of overall capacity, the EIA said.

Gasoline stocks (USOILG=ECI) rose by 2 million barrels in the week to 209.5 million barrels, compared with expectations for a 1.8 million-barrel drop.​

See it for what it is. Mortgaging a secure future for a political crutch. This administration is talking about Armageddon while the World is on fire and is taking away our national ability to operate safely in it. They haven't got qualified people in cabinet positions and are willing to make Putin wealthy and Greta Thunberg seem sane. Of course the cost of gas is going to rise. This fool ended his lockdown mandates which is expected to put Americans back in to the workforce...along with all of the commerce that goes along with that...while closing pipelines and ending drilling rights to the point of zero profitability...all while blaming non-entities like gas station owners for the rate hikes. Its insanity.

$3.12 for regular at Kroger, $4.79 for diesel.

I had a $50 Shell gift card I'd won, I'd already been to four Shell stations that have all been recently converted to Circle-K so the card was not accpeted. I found the only Shell station left withint about 50+ files, they do not sell diesel, so I ask how many lottery cards I can buy, none, South Carolina cards are cash only. I noticed a homeless guy when I entered the station store so I asked the clerk if the card was good for food, yes, so I gave it to the homeless guy. He was speechless, then said thanks and GB.
