Worked at a full service gas station in high school with 2 bays for repairs. Mechanical pumps, cheap oil in cardboard quarts and mostly cash sales. Gas rarely went over 30 cents a gallon for regular.

Now we are in my wheelhouse     Any refinery that can run sour crude can and does process sweet. Just can't do it as efficiently. Fact, no refinery in the USA processes ONLY sour crude. They

Again politics is not a subject for the site. It's specifically mentioned in the site rules. People are only going to argue.   Gas price listing are fine without all the political comment.

During my travels recently starting in the state of low taxes and happiness, Texas. 3.09 per gallon. Ending in Fayetteville NC. Around 3.50 per gallon. Representing the most I paid per gallon. The flow of traffic was mind blowing on the interstates. Even through speed checks 80-85 mph. I didn’t want to stem the flow so I would match when hitting the fast lane. Settling back to 72-75 in the right.

went down .10 yesterday pretty much everywhere. Newspaper says diesel/heating oil reserves are 63% below average here in New England and all it will take to cause a major shortage is for the gulf coast refineries to get shut down by a hurricane. 24% of the homes in Massachusetts still heat with oil and more than 60% in Maine so it may be a tough winter. Diesel still right around $5 now and heating oil is around $4. That's a tuff nut for some ppl to find the $ to fill a 275 gallon oil tank every month

Well maybe there’s a bright side. We wouldn’t have extra money for the new IRS agents to take. Oh wait a minute that may be consider political, sorry!🫣🤐😜

Wow.  Does it really take that much?  I ask, I have no experience with that kind of heating.

 

If it were that much, at $4 a gallon, I'd have to marry an Eskimo woman.

If anyone cares Opec just flipped our idiot in chief the bird and will be cutting back production. This means price increases and our reserves are just about all used up now. I guess we should just hope nothing happens, as i don't think our military runs on batteries!

The 100,000 barrels a day is only reversing the 100,000 barrel a day increase they did one month ago, it literally means nothing.

 

The market was down $5 a barrel today anyway, lowest since Feb. It's complete randomness for the ups and down because all it takes is someone opening their mouth and giving an opinion for the markets to take a turn. They don't work on facts or real time data, they just spit hot garbage to make the market do whatever.

$3.75 where I live and $4.65 for diesel. 88 octane is $3.45 and going up north I found E85 for a mere $2.44 a gallon.

 

Where the local gas price war is going on in the south east metro it's down to $2.96 but I ain't driving 45 miles away to get fuel lol.

      GM Hard Folding Tonneau by REV review

      By parthery · Posted

      Some clarification may help with some of these issues.   - Rev Industries is/was the division of BAK (now Realtruck) that makes covers under the OEM names.  So if you see one with a Ford logo on it, or if you are buying the GM Accessories cover, you are essentially buying a BAK G2 cover with different branding.   - Rev Industries now markets under RealTruck "Advantage."   - As of May 1, 2025, the Advantage covers now have a 5 year warranty.  Anything before that was a 36/36K warranty.   - Parts for the covers are available from Realtruck or BAK.  The email address to reach them is [email protected] or you can call them at 818-365-9000   - If the entire cover has to be replaced, you have to go through your local GM dealer.  Service dept opens an RO, notes the damage and submits it as a warranty claim.  Keep your paperwork handy so they can confirm when you purchased it and it's within the warranty timeframe.  Once the warranty claim is approved, Parts orders the replacement cover.  When it arrives at the dealership, service will remove and install the new one for free as labor is included under warranty.   - The Advantage covers are not the latest and greatest Gen 3 covers.  They still use the old school clamps, elevator bolts, etc...If you want the newer technology, consider buying your cover in the aftermarket world.  That way, if you have an issue you can deal directly with the manufacturer.   - Finally, RealTruck has a program with many of their authorized dealers that doubles the warranty to 10 years if the authorized dealer does the install.     Hope this helps.

      Welcome to the group!  My '22 just crossed 150K miles.  Runs perfectly.  Oil pump belt will be done in the next 30 days or so and onward hopefully for another 150K.  Love the truck.

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      Thanks for all the help so far!   I did try right from 2026 right down to 2021, and only from 2023 down lets me select the option for tire psi change, but I get the vehicle not supported error!   I'll definitely try it under Chevrolet after work today, and I'll get the sensor number from gm for my truck tire sensors. And I'll let you know if it works for me under Chevrolet!   And if that doesn't work, I'm going to guess that what @Atlas said about maybe I have a different body control module could be true!

      2010 Avalanche 5.3 not running correctly after engine swap.

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!
