Is this just a result of poor planning or is it deliberate? How did more people not see this coming?
As for me.... about $165 to fill my truck. |

Going to get real ugly when the gulf coast gets hit with a couple hurricanes.

And of course the stupid pump shuts off at $125, so you have to swipe twice |

The places that vote Communist the most, rely on heavy oil products the most, LOL. Now don’t get me wrong, I am pretty tired of being screwed on diesel prices like everyone else. The next step is more items will disappear from shelves. Watch 2000 Mules, get educated.

So far I have not heard anything. I'm not currently in sales though. Haven't heard anything about reduction in allocations from what can be pulled. Maybe news maybe not. Right now time will tell.

Just open the spigot on the strategic reserves a little wider. It worked last time

US is exporting Diesel to make up for Biden's sanctions on Russian Diesel production.

View Quote I know everyone will say deliberate, but based on the inventory chart in OP we were on an almost as bad trajectory in 2020 and then Covid bailed us out. Inventory built up quickly, and then has just been in decline ever since. |

European demand for US fuel is up something like 600% from an article I read today.
Refineries re tooled for either gasoline or renewable diesel (lol) in 2020. They’re going to gear up a little bit for distillates over the summer. But I don’t expect diesel prices to go down anytime soon. Drilling isn’t coming online nearly as fast as it needs to. There’s a lot of instability in the market. The political forces are still against the O&G industry. The false push for renewables. Etc. |

Not going to be a fun summer in the trucking industry. I expect a further collapse of the trucking industry. Construction industry is going to get trounced. Inflation will continue to sky rocket. Biden is… being Biden. And not actually doing anything remotely helpful. |

It sounds like what we really need is this war in Ukraine to get wrapped up one way or another so the eurofags can go back to buying Russian oil. That alleviates the supply issues here in the US.

The EV owners will still have to go to the camps though |

With global warming, New England won't need any heating oil next winter.
Psaki is working on a witty comment about the subject. Just need to groom some more kids. |

All by design. The MSM will just say "everything is fine" and the Beltway Swamp creatures will high five.

Biden is… being Biden. And not actually doing anything remotely helpful. View Quote The construction industry can’t get much worse. We’re still busy as hell even with serious lead time issues. Structural steel is 6-8 months right now. Joists are pushing a year. Galvanizes are 3+ months out. Garage doors are pushing a year to be shipped with missing hardware. Common electrical gear is pushing 30 week lead times. HVAC units have stretched to 40 weeks. Common items have become unobtainium. Survey whiskers are one color now and even those are hard to get. Things are bad and only getting worse. |

Anyone know the fuel situation in the middle of the country or on the west coast?
|
|
So, should I go ahead and buy that 500 gal fuel tank and fill it at ~$5/gal diesel to hedge the coming increase? I already have a 300 gal tank.
Fill both? I am here in SE TX and this fuel pricing SUX. |
