Tim,
I paid $4.29/gal/diesel Tuesday in AZ; 46 cents/gal less than here in Anaheim Hills, CA. My bus diesel tank is full. I buy AZ diesel fuel and feed the beast here in Anaheim. I'm hoping to head up to MT for some of that brisket with Shane and Ernie...waiting on other family members to make a commitment to taking the time off...time will tell.

$4.00 a gal. ? where? what State? In HOT SO. Calif (102) today

Thursday the price of Diesel is 4.77 a gal. The price of driving

into a RV Park use to be how gorgeous our Bird was; now its "How

much does it take fill that GINORMOUS BUS? I quiver in

saying "Priceless" anymore.
