We may have it less, but I work as a contractor and a pastor. Right now I'm spending around 45.00 per day on fuel, and that is just for my truck. That does not include other vehicles, implements, tools, generators, etc. If this holds up, fuel prices, just wait until it hits the shelves at stores. Most transportation companies are eating the price difference right now due to presigned contracts for delivery. (I'm already charged a 'fuel surcharge' on most lumber now. My crew rates are having to go up next week. BTW, my farming kin are really getting nailed. Right in the busiest part of the year diesel kabooms up the chart. )It will be like the truckers' strike of the past before this is over.
