Seems to be a few industries milking the current situation(s) for every penny of profit they can.

You don't suppose cutting the natural gas supply to Europe by the Russians would upset energy prices?

The gas goes via Poland...

$200 CDN disappeared into my Dodge EcoDiesel the other day...

Can't have someone trying to start WWIII and it not mess with economics...

Happy coaching!

Here it it is the 1st of May and oil is still over a 100 bucks a barrel no relief for May it will stay high if it doesn't drop in price in May. Summer vacations will be short drives for me.In the US 5 refineries have shut down and the Old Sinclair refinery is shutting down in Houston after a 100 years the way it is going no refineries are going to be around if oil prices drop in the US

I gulped (again) when reading this...
The NW call of the wild is haunting us this year with fuel pricing. When we embark it will be spearheaded by a notion that prices will not get better..., to live in the now...
A portion of the haunt is contemplating on retiring (or at least decreasing) active OTR bus activities to tiny home notion... ???

This raising fuel cost may change some traveling plans in the future. Diesel went up about thirty cents the other day here we are now at $5.30. Gas is still under the four dollar mark.

We will never see $2.50 a gal fuel again I look for it to level off around $4.00 a gal today's inflation has bitten us in the @$# big time

Lots of room for your fuel to go up yet. Here outside of Vancouver diesel is $2.00 a liter, which is I think around $7.50 a US gallon. It hurts but I don't see any of the coal rollers slowing down any.
