About these prices
Every figure on this page is the U.S. Energy Information Administration's weekly retail price for on-highway diesel, reproduced as published. The agency collects prices as of 8 a.m. Monday and publishes them on Tuesday, or on Wednesday after a federal holiday.
These are cash prices at the pump, including taxes, before any fuel card discount, so they will not match what a fleet pays on a card.
Every region
Regions are the government's Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts (PADD), under the government's own names. The East Coast and West Coast are totals of the regions listed under them, so they are never ranked among the biggest movers.
