fuel hit 5.07 today

[Hank]

Thanks guys. Now I don't feel so bad. I paid $4.589 here in upstate SC today. Was talking with Nick (xsracinggt) while I was pumping and it was $4.80 just across the NC line. Guess I'm lucky?

Just paid $4.89 in Western Mass and I gotta tow my wife's horses to a show on Monday. This is gonna be painful!

5.07 is a joke for fuel but so is 5.25 thats what it hit this morn

Well I was complaining about it being $4.75 here in Central Kentucky.. but dang $5.25 is horrible. I have a bet going with my old lady that diesel would break $5 this year.. didn't know you guys over on the west coast had already seen it.. that stinks!

I also drive about 45K to 50K every year for work. I was paying myself .505 per mile for fuel cost's but after I set down and broke it all down that isn't nearly enough to cover everything.. had to bump it up to .75 to really cover all my expenses and to be able to put a little bit back to cover future problems!

oh 5.25 was about a week and a half ago, it was 5.30 this morning at the expensive place but still 5.25 where i usually go but im sure it will change by tonight

what the heck is going on,its 5.09 here also,i havent driven my truck in 2 weeks,and that just pisses me off more than anything,i mean we do live in america dont we,this is just sad i cant even drive the truck i love or my kids wont be able to eat dinner,heck if it keeps going like this i wont be in the middle class anymore i will be on foodstamps myself,and lose everything also this seems like the normal thing these days,dunno,just frustrated.

This is ridiculous, how are the big boys doing it? Are they making any money?

There just passing it on its a domino affect and everyone will pay for it.
