To elaborate on what Vlad posted think about it this way. Everything moves by something powered by diesel fuel. Sure there are a lot of gasoline powered cars and trucks that consumers drive, but all industry is driven by various machines that all burn diesel. So with greater demand comes higher price. I think it sucks since I own a duracrack, but oh well nothing you can do about it.
