Here in midtown Toronto I just filled up at 102.9 for Sunoco Gold
diesel. Their regular diesel, which is still decent fuel...MUCH better
than Petro Canada or Esso's crap, is 99.8 which is up a couple of cents
from a couple of weeks ago.
Hey, it's the cost of doing business so I don't complain
I'd buy BioD exclusively, even at a higher cost, if I didn't have to drive
20-25 miles off of my commute (97mi each way) to get the stuff, especially
when there's a diesel pump ~50 feet off of my commute... (I'd put up with
2-3 miles out of the way, but I pass at least 3 fuel stations with

If you want to see a long term solution tell your elected officials to impose
a $1 across the board fuel tax. That'll get people interested in improving
fleet economy NOW. It'll also create renewed interest in mass

Anyone have any idea why HHO is getting to be more expensive than diesel?
(since as far as I'm aware, HHO is either the same, or LESS refined than
diesel...)
Delivery has something to do with it. I can recall about 20 years ago

Yes, to me, that is the most basic concept at work here. I was saying that
the other day. Why on earth would they lower the prices once it has been
well-established that we will continue to buy just as much at the higher
