Is this a live diesel price?

This is a weekly benchmark, not a live pump-price feed. A truck stop’s cash price, credit price or fuel-card price can differ from its region’s average. Use the actual price you expect to pay when estimating your trip.

Put the price into the right calculation

The truck fuel cost calculator applies your entered price to total driving miles. The fuel surcharge calculator uses a base price and contract MPG assumption. Those are different questions: what fuel will cost you, and what adjustment your agreement may allow.

How updates work

ORYNLO checks the official EIA release daily through WordPress scheduled tasks. New releases replace the table only after the date and values pass validation. If retrieval fails, the last verified table stays visible with an update-delay notice. Low site activity or a source change can delay refreshes; the official source remains available above.

Regions are the EIA reporting areas, not quotes for every state. For example, a national average should not be labeled a Texas truck-stop price. Browse all carrier tools →
