So cheap :D, if you convert, it's like more than 10 USD in France

The US is 18 times bigger than France and uses a lot more fuel to transport goods across the nation. The price of diesel severely impacts everyone here.

In the meantime China reduces oil usage while caring for over billion people.

California gets to enjoy higher gasoline prices. Most stations in our area, including Costco are around $5.80/gal and the Chevron stations are over $6.00/gal

If the high prices are due to war and supply-chain issues ~  why are the oil and gas companies making huge profits?

I don't have that answer but many of the major oil companies also do oil exploration, so they make more money from their crude.

It seems some are quoting diesel prices and some are quoting gas/petrol prices. There’s a big difference here in the states between the two. Is that the same in other countries?


Current average US prices. 
 

The$4.31 per gallon for regular gas and $6.20 per gallon for diesel
  • Regular Gasoline: $4.31
  • Mid-Grade: $4.81
  • Premium: $5.20
  • Diesel: $6.20
  • E85: $3.29 [1]

Jer 29:11-“For I well know the thoughts I am thinking toward you, declares Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not calamity, to give you a future and a hope.”

Psalm 56:3-“When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.”
Romans 8:38-”For I am convinced...”

Yes, it’s similar in Brazil. We also have different prices for gasoline and diesel.

 

Here in Brazil, we pay in Brazilian reais (BRL). As of September 2026, regular gasoline is around R$6.60 per liter, while diesel is around R$6.50–R$6.90 per liter.

 

I converted the prices to US dollars only for comparison: that’s roughly US$1.30 per liter for gasoline and US$1.27–$1.35 per liter for diesel.

 

So yes, there is a difference between gasoline and diesel here too.
