Although most regions experienced falling prices last week, California and the Rocky Mountain regions saw slight increases. California remains the most expensive for diesel, with a 3.2-cent increase bringing its average to $4.76 per gallon. The Rocky Mountain region recorded a minor 0.3-cent bump.

On the other end of the spectrum, the Gulf Coast remains the most affordable region for diesel at $3.14 per gallon, closely followed by the Lower Atlantic region at $3.41 per gallon. The biggest price drops were observed in these regions, at 4 cents and 3.1 cents, respectively.

Gulf Coast – $3.14
Lower Atlantic – $3.41
Midwest – $3.42
Rocky Mountain – $3.46
New England – $3.88
