[QUOTE="TXBobcat, post: 379173, member: 94"] Since Camp is our resident expert on fuel and its refining I thought I would ask his opinion on this subject, but anyone else feel free to chime in on the matter. A few months ago I traded in my gas guzzling 318 Dodge 1500 for a Dodge Cummins 2500. The gasser got about 14-15 mpg and I am getting 17-18 out of the Cummins. I have noticed that diesel is recently started to fall below the price of unleaded around here (Waco area). I just paid 2.58 for diesel, and the 87 unleaded was 2.77 at Flying J. I couldn't be happier, that is unless it keeps falling. Are diesel prices going to continue to fall? Have the refineries ironed out all the wringles in meeting gov standards for diesel? I am thinking that the refineries are producing more diesel than the consumers are using so that is why it has fallen below unleaded. Also, would you recommend running a lubricant in a diesel because I understand that the process that removes the sulphur also removes the lubricity of the diesel. I just picked up some Howe's meaner cleaner additive, and I am on my second tank with it. [/QUOTE]
