Interestingly diesel is holding over $3.00 (generally $3.09) in MA but down to
$2.93 just over the border in NH. That tells me the MA stations are seriously
raping us on price since NH has a higher fuel tax and traditionally prices
climb 15-20 cents when I cross the border.
Gas is around $2.39
Don't know if I mentioned it already, but the Valero station on River Road

there is no other competition for at least a mile away, where the price is
