003, please tell us more about Top Tier fuel.


Diablo was the one going on and on about top tier fuel. We can talk about the increase without being misleading by posting two different gas brands as if they were the same. Prices vary by brand and station.

Much of the increase you are showing is unique to California, which is run by liberal Democrats.

Gas is $2.67 in Texas. You might want to thank California Democrats instead.

Cheapest Gasoline in the entire Diablo Valley.

Most stations are charging at least $5.29 for Premium.

So much for crude oil crashing from $80 to $60.

All he does is LIE.

"You have gasoline that hit $1.98 yesterday in a couple of states."

Hi Mr. Grumpy Old Man,

According to my AI sources, gas prices in California are high due to a combination of state policies, taxes, and supply constraints, though some argue these are offset by efforts to curb price gouging. Here's a breakdown of the key factors based on recent data:

[ol]
  • High Taxes and Fees: California has the highest gasoline tax in the U.S., at 59.7 cents per gallon as of July 2024, increasing annually with inflation. Additional state and local taxes, plus environmental fees, add roughly $1.50 per gallon compared to the national average.
  • Stricter Environmental Regulations: The California Air Resources Board (CARB) mandates a unique low-carbon fuel blend to reduce emissions, which is costlier to produce. New 2025 Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) rules are projected to raise gas prices by 4765 cents per gallon and diesel by 59 cents, as refiners must buy credits or invest in cleaner fuels.
  • Limited Supply and Refinery Issues: California's "energy island" status means it relies on in-state refineries or costly imports via rail, truck, or ship, with no inbound pipelines. Recent refinery closures, like Phillips 66's Los Angeles facility (8.3% of state capacity), and a February 2025 fire at Martinez Refining Company, have tightened supply, potentially adding 814 cents per gallon. Assembly Bill X2-1, requiring refiners to maintain extra inventory, adds 4.727 cents per gallon in compliance costs.
  • Seasonal Blend Transitions: Switching to a summer fuel blend, formulated to reduce ozone emissions, increases costs from February (Southern California) to March (Northern California). This transition, combined with routine refinery maintenance, often spikes prices.
  • Market Dynamics and Demand: California's high cost of living and stable demand, despite a push for electric vehicles (25% of new car sales in 2024), keep prices elevated. The closure of refineries reduces supply faster than demand, driving prices up. A USC study estimates Californians may need $600$1,000 more annually to cover 2025 gas costs

    Valero takes a $1.1 Billion impairment charge in Q1 earnings due to shuttering their Benicia and Wilmington (LA) refineries.

    Company lost money on $30 Billion in revenue in Q1. Cited crappy refining margins.

    Interesting comments by Cal's Borenstein, especially as it relates to the impact of AB2-X on refinery inventory levels...

    Now you know why gas prices are down across the nation except for places like California.

    For those with POOR reading comprehension...

    From the article :

    A bigger problem in his mind is the "mystery gasoline surcharge," a term he coined that refers to the difference between fuel prices in California and those of other states, even after accounting for taxes.

    That unexplained gap, which he said the CEC is now investigating, is likely "going towards profits of some company," according to Borenstein.

    Newsom the shining star here.

    Two major oil refineries - Phillips 66 in SoCal, Valero in Benicia - to shut down.

    Prognosticators predicting $7 to $8 a gallon gas.

    Newsom loses over 2,000 well-paying blue collar jobs. Travis Air Force Base will also lose a secure reliable fuel supply. Airfares to increase, shortages possible (think special blends).

    Newsom's office has sent some letter claiming to want to understand the oil companies needs better.

    I believe he just ended his presidential aspirations.

    $7 gallon gas, calamitous fires.

    We can agree that Trump shouldn't have said anything. We can also agree to disagree that Reiner was the same as everyone else who has TDS.

    Why would anyone believe James Woods?
    I think he could use some new meds.

    I just paid $4.15 at AM/PM ARCO this weekend thanks to OPEC+

    In order words, gas prices are down in most of the U.S. since the Biden admin. Californians will always pay higher for gas than the average American.

    In other words, the post by James Woods is FAKE NEWS.
    No one is paying those prices in CA.

    It's also funny that there are people out there that think that the President sets gas prices.
    I guess they've never heard of OPEC.

    In many parts of California, they were paying those high prices during the Biden era.
