Default Gasoline prices have come down, but not motor oil prices.

A quart of name brand 5W30 is still about $2.25, and has not come down as

the cost of producing motor oil, but apparently it does not respond to
decreases in crude prices at all.

Soon I will have to do some 0W-20 oil changes and that costs about $6 per quart.


Propane should also come down.

It has come down when bought in bulk, but those 20lb cylinders
(Exchange) have remained at the exact same price (when you bring an
empty tank to exchange).
