San Diego Shell Station Sells Diesel for $9.99 a Gallon as California Fuel Crisis Deepens
3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Sep 13
Summary
$9.99-a-gallon diesel was still available Friday at a Shell station in San Diego's Serra Mesa neighborhood, according to an employee reached by phone.
The price has become a stark marker of California's fuel crisis, pushing retail diesel to a level that nearly maxes out standard station signage.
Most electronic gas-station marquees are limited to three digits, meaning prices above $9.99 often cannot be fully displayed even if costs rise further.
