Definitely!

As a transporter who (even though I am cutting back some) still runs close to 100K miles per year, fuel prices are the single most important expense I have. I am now filling up most of the time with diesel in my trucks at or below $3.00 per gallon in most of the country. When I get around states like Californication ,New Yuck, Etc I make sure I am filled up at the lower prices before entering. I can run around 600 miles on a fill up so (for the most part) those states get NONE of my money.

Perfect example : I sold my old enclosed trailer to a friend in Gettysburg, Pa & agreed to deliver it to him yesterday. I filled up here in Ohio for $2.99 per gal. for diesel just before the border, delivered the trailer & made it back to the same station late the same day saving a minimum of $1.00 per gallon for the trip.

God Bless
Bill
