The Price of Diesel Versus Printer Ink


All these examples do NOT imply that diesel is cheap; it just illustrates how outrageous some prices are....

You will be really shocked by the last one!

Compared with Diesel......

Think a gallon of diesel is expensive?

This makes one think, and also puts things in perspective.

Diet Snapple 16 oz $1.29 ... $10.32 per gallon

Lipton Ice Tea 16 oz $1.19 ..........$9.52 per gallon

Gatorade 20 oz $1.59 ..... $10.17 per gallon

Ocean Spray 16 oz $1.25 ......... $10.00 per gallon

Brake Fluid 12 oz $3.15 ...... $33.60 per gallon

Vick's Nyquil 6 oz $8.35 ... $178.13 per gallon

Pepto Bismol 4 oz $3.85 .. $123.20 per gallon

Whiteout 7 oz $1.39 ....... . $25.42 per gallon

Scope 1.5 oz $0.99 .....$84.48 per gallon

And this is the REAL KICKER...

Ever wonder why printers are so cheap?

So they have you hooked for the ink.

Someone calculated the cost of the INK at a retail store (you won't believe it....but it is true........)
$5,200 a gal. (five thousand two hundred dollars)

So, the next time you're at the pump, be glad your truck doesn't run on water, Scope, or Whiteout, Pepto Bismol, Nyquil or Printer Ink!

Just a little humor to help ease the pain of our next trip to the pump.

What is Freight Factoring?

Freight factoring is a financial service that trucking and transportation companies use to improve their cash flow.
