Diesel down for fourth week
Diesel prices have fallen, slightly, for the fourth week in a row but continue to run well above $2.50 in much of the country.
The average U.S. retail pump price for diesel dipped 0.4 cents in the Feb. 6 report by the Energy Information Administration (EIA), to $2.558 per gallon. That’s 55 cents higher than this time last year.
Prices slipped in every region except for the West Coast, where California saw a 1.7-cent gain to $2.944, the highest price in the lower 48 states.
