They blame it on the fact that we use more heating oil up in this area. Its all a load of BS. I cant imagine how much the school district I work for shells out in diesel and fuel oil costs per month. My building alone uses between 500 and 1200 gals a day and the bus fleet is around 130 full size bus's

While I know they blame heating oil in your area, that doesn't explain the massive price difference in my area. $.60 difference and its still not cold. i don't know of anyone around here that uses heating oil, though.

it's real interesting to see how there isn't such a wide margin in other areas. i really wonder why that is. the area i live in was always rated as the #2 lowest in fuel prices nationally. I guess that is a thing of the past.
