Diesel And Gas Prices


Over the years, the prices of both gas and diesel have experienced some drastic changes.  Many years ago, the price of gas was around a dollar or a little more, nothing like it is today.  Back then, gas wasn't high in price although the demand for vehicles wasn't what it is today either.

As the demand for vehicles grew, the demand for  fuel grew as well.  Other actions and events have played into the equation as well, resulting in the rising costs of fuel.  Fuel is something we all need to run our vehicles, as we wouldn't be able to go anywhere without it. 

As you may know, a majority of the gas we get at local gas stations comes from overseas, primarily the Middle East.  Therefore, we have to pay taxes and such on the gas we use, which pays for the gas as well as the shipping.  If we got our gas from within the United States, one can't help but wonder whether or not the prices would indeed be lower.

Diesel on the other hand, has always managed to keep a price lower than gas.  Diesel comes from within the United States, so the prices are of course going to be lower.  The only problem associated with diesel fuel is locating it, as many gas stations don't sell it.

When it comes to the choice between the two, diesel fuel is obviously cheaper to buy.  Gas is in supply more, which means that you can find it almost anywhere.  If you own a gasoline vehicle, you obviously don't want to put diesel in it.  If you own a diesel vehicle, then you of course wouldn't want to put gas in it either.
