And what is the breakdown on tax"s? Some pumps locally note $.11 federal and $.34 state tax last year. 10% ethanol mix"s common and Ethanol made locally--but California for years used MTBE instead until it was classified a carcogen/cancer causer--then the state transport people were complaining the Ethanol was costing them so much on transportation to California and they couldn"t get a tax break since it wasn"t made in California-mainly because state didn"t give permits for stills past 10 years. Formulation of California fuels compared to Minnesota- something about need another pass through the refinery and special blending to meet the California fuel emissions standards tighter than Minnesota, most of Midwest. BART get some state fuel excise tax money, some other highway rebuilding fund from earthquakes also has 3 to 5 cents extra excise tax per gallon. Right now in Wisconsin the gas station across street has $3.57 for regular 10% ethanol, .$3.99 non ethanol premium, $4.05 ultra low sulfur diesel. Some offroad farm delivered diesel with a bit more sulfur similar to railroad fuel is about $3.00/gallon, some volume discount from the Cenex/co-op outfit, this is the pink stuff that cost you $500.00+ if DOT inspector finds it in your commercial pickup or truck fuel tank on the highway-- but the old Mercedes and VW diesel classic cars pre 2000 seem to get away with it. And the Amish are laughing as they get their buggy fuel from ditch side starting about now. Teasing Alert! RN
