Not bragging but, the truckstop on my commute is back down to $2.99.
Paid $2.87 this morning at the cheapie place near where we eat breakfast.
Had a guy try to buy my 190D this morning. I quoted the rube $8k, figured if
he'd
pay that he deserved what he got. I really like only filling up once a month
though...

Got fuel yesterday. Had to swallow when I saw the BioD price was up to
$3.11. Big grin that I was not putting any #2 in. The price there has
gone to $3.57. Guess I need to snag a large tank and stock up while it
is cheap for winter driving. Then again, I could just use old oil and
some gasoline to thin it for Gump.

Thanks Jim - I'm thinking I will just do the brake hose for now and see how
it goes.
