Show Notes
Diesel prices in California and Washington have reached unprecedented highs, surpassing previous records amid rising national averages following the Iran conflict. Californias diesel averages $7.12 per gallon, while Washingtons is $6.52. Regular unleaded gas, though lower, still faces challenges due to environmental rules, unique fuel blends, high state taxes, and limited refineries on the West Coast. Crude oil prices have soared to $118 per barrel, more than 60% higher since the conflict began, driven by distributor cutbacks and supply chain disruptions. With ongoing international tensions, fuel costs are expected to continue straining wallets and businesses.
