Understanding High Fuel Costs
While the media reports record breaking profits for multi-national oil corporations, the real picture behind rising fuel costs isn’t that simple. The cost of fuel is truly a sum of all its parts and the variables that play into the equation are diverse.
Welcome
Dear Customers,
Well we've made it through another winter. You have seen the price you pay for a comfortable home rise considerably this season. Some of you have taken that in stride; however most of us need to be more concerned about the cost of that comfort. Along these lines, I would like to speak to some issues you may have.
Research surveys tell us that many of you believe we make more money as a result of higher prices. Others believe we wait to make deliveries when prices are highest. Some others of you may be actively looking to mitigate that cost by finding another fuel source. Needless to say, price spikes cause much speculation and consternation.
Let us make one thing very clear. We do not make more during spikes and we do not wait for higher prices to make deliveries. Those who make the most money are those who are smart or lucky enough to have supplies secured before prices rise. However, the same would have lost money had the price dropped.
Beat High Fuel Prices
- Obey the speed limit. (This may save you money in more ways than one!)
- Use cruise-control when it is safe to do so.
- Avoid rapid acceleration and braking.
- Keep tires properly inflated.
- Limit the use of the air conditioner.
- Do not carry unnecessary weight.
- Have your vehicle tuned-up regularly.
- Do not overfill the gas tank.
