The very HOT desert where temperatures get up to 120 degrees..... Unbelievable! But true..... The INSIDE view: ![]() ![]() ![]() Why is gasoline $2.39 a gallon for regular unleaded?????? Supply and demand??? That must be it.... we want them to supply us with the oil and they demand that we pay the price!

			That structure is pretty incredible. I don't want to get into why gas is so high, I am not smart enough to figure out all the nuances that contribute to it. What I want to know is, WHY DOES DIESEL COST MORE??????? It takes half the refining to produce diesel yet it costs more than premium...that my friends is price gouging and it sucks...LOL, every vehicle I own is diesel including a boat.
