Diesel prices on the way up the hill

Just got back from Mammoth/June area.

Diesel prices suck! I topped off at the Chevron in Bishop on the way up. $3.05 a gallon. 3 days later, same station, $3.15 a gallon. Most places were $3.09 - $3.25, then I see it. $3.35 a gallon! Diesel is one or two steps above oil! In Alaska, they sometimes use Jet A and an oil additive. This is crap.

Anyway, I thought I'd post for those heading up. I made the trip from Bishop to Corona without stopping again at my normal top off spot.

650 miles @ 10 mpg @ $3.15 a gallon = double what I paid two years ago!

And why do you only get 10 mpg? Towing something very heavy?
