Subject:Re: Thoughts on why the diesel prices just went up on the east coast
Date:Mon, 24 Jan 2000 21:06:24 EST

Running a diesel Ford pickup and a diesel GM Suburban my parents noticed the
rise in diesel prices immediately.  I heard a story that one of the guys that
goes to our church was filling up his Ford diesel dually and since this takes
a while (he has two tanks both holding a zillion gallons a piece) he noticed
that the attendants at the gas station were changing the price on diesel
(increasing it).  When he got done filling up, they tried to charge him
according to the "new" price!  He made them call their manager who allowed
the man to pay the price that was on the pump when he started filling up, not
what it was when he finished.  :)
Truth is stranger than fiction.

Thanks,
