Diesel jumps 18.2 cents to $4.331

After a slight decrease last week, the weekly retail on-highway diesel price rose 18.2 cents per gallon setting another new record, according to the Energy Information Administration.

On May 12 the price was $4.331, up $1.558 from the same week one year ago.

All regions showed at least a 12 cent increase, with the Midwest coming in with the largest jump of 19.7 cents a gallon to $4.298. The area with the costliest diesel was the Central Atlantic region at $4.516, which was a 17.1 cent increase from the week before. More from The Trucker

California, as usual, has the highest average diesel fuel price at $4.547 per gallon. At what point will Washington get serious about domestic drilling and realistic plans to get us off foreign oil?

  1. Not until they’re convinced that they’ll lose $$ support and be voted out. They’re all whores. How do you get a whore’s attention? $$ Right now, they get the most from the enviro-nuts/whackjobs. Until that changes, we’re doomed.
