ever heard of a real cannonball run?
Supply and demand. ever see a gas station with no fuel. As a truck driver i've seen many truck stops with no diesel. I burn nearly 250 gallons every day. in fact in past 10,000 miles i've burned 1659 gallons. plus comercial diesel has been altered by removing sulphur. content is 15 ppm. that and they are greedy. 129.029 gallons cost $343.09. once last year it was over $600 to fill up.Why is the glass on airplane toilets frosted who the hell is going to look in?
pure GREED! there is only one answer and that is it.Because the demand for it is limited to mainly industrial consumers, who are able and willing to pay the higher price, production (supply) is not as high as that of gasoline and the equilibrium of demand and supply was established at the high price we see now.
Your premise is wrong, it isn't cheaper to make, especially with the new requirements for low sulfur diesel now. See http://dieselforum.org/ for more on that.
Biofuel...can I run my diesel 1996 car on sunflower oil without a conversion.?
But maybe Willie Nelson will make it better.
What is the fastest car route from London to Woking? On average, how long does it take?
The light at the end of the tunnel is Willie Nelson
But there may be relief in sight, thanks to Willie Nelson. Willie is a backer of "BioWillie," a biodiesel fuel made from seeds and stems and probably soybeans. After all, Rudolph Diesel, who invented the engine, used to run his on peanut oil. Adding biodiesel to regular diesel might cut the cost per gallon. Or not. Anyway, Willie Nelson backs his own brand, BioWillie, which is sold at truck stops "all over the country," which means six places in Texas, and one each in California, Georgia and South Carolina, but if you log on to www.biowillie.com, you can buy a BioWillie computer mouse pad for $15.99.
i'm 20 and dont know how to drive?
This is a good question, diesel fuel oil is a by product produced when refining oil to get petrol [alright gas]. In days gone by there was not much demand for diesel fuel and there were quantities of this fuel readily available and this was reflected in the price. However today we see a much higher demand for diesel fuel and with fuel efficient cars a somewhat lessor demand for petrol. Now the refineries are finding they are not refining as much petrol as demand for this fuel softens and so proportionally they are having trouble meeting the increasing demand for diesel so it's a case of supply and demand, the price goes up to reduce the demand. and don't forget the gov't has it's fingers in the pie alsoMore Questions & Answers ...
