I have seen stations mark up fuel from between 1 cent and 6 cents a gallon. The transporter has a much higher markup.

I've heard 10 cents a gallon markup at the punp here - so you must be right - the transporters / distributors must be the bastards taking advantage of us.
A station in Columbus Ohio raised their prices a DOLLAR a gallon the night of Sept.11 - three days later the people there raised so much hell with them they closed their doors.
