Didnt seem that expensive in my area, but I generally dont notice it. One of the benefits of having a electric vehicle as my primary vehicle I suppose.
You're certainly paying for it everywhere else, because the price of diesel is directly contributing to price increases on every good that moves by truck, train or plane and that's pretty much all of them. I wouldn't get too comfortable.

Diesel is also the fuel of farms, so even before being trucked to the grocery store, when diesel soars, food costs soar.

That's good for you and certainly a perk to owning an electric car.
Unfortunately for many that's just not a financial option and those are the hardest hit by higher gas prices as well due to low incomes.
You mean the guy that pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal, and sanctioned Iranian oil, thus contributing to the current high oil prices? No I don’t miss you one little bit.
Also used sanctions to destroy the oil industry in Venezuela, the nation with the world's largest reserves and once the major supplier of imported oil in the US. Wrecking Venezuela not only put US energy security in jeopardy, it drove that nation to closer ties with the Russians and brought a flood of economic refugees to our southern border. Biden is working to reverse both these disastrous policies, but it's gonna take time. Though I think the Keystone should have gone forward, Venezuela is far, far more significant.
Paid $4.20 yesterday. It has zig-zagged here for the past three months. The lowest was about $3.60, but the average has been right around $4.00. Before Biden, it was $1.89. Btw, my husband worked in the oil and gas industry before he retired, and he is convinced that all this zig-zagging is completely artificial, so he is really angry at the fluctuations -- much more so than the average person, I think.
Btw, I am wondering if the gas prices will affect summer travel this year. I live in a tourist area that receives about two million visitors during peak season (our county's year-round population is just 30,000), and last weekend was supposed to signal the start of tourist season with our annual Spring Marathon. However, we have three summer rental homes on our lane, and none of them have been rented yet. (All of these homes, with three-night minimums in July and August were rented last year almost every day from about May 5 to about October 25.) Although this only affects me in a minor way, I wonder what this bodes for the summer, as many of the year-rounders own restaurants, inns, art galleries or other small retail shops that depend on tourist dollars.
no matter how high it goes, I keep thinking California always pay far far higher.
