Live US Diesel Price
The official U.S. national average retail diesel price, refreshed weekly from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). This is the same index used in most freight contracts and fuel-surcharge formulas.
Where this number comes from
The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) surveys around 400 retail diesel stations across the country every Monday and publishes a weighted national average the same day. It's the most widely cited diesel benchmark in U.S. trucking and is referenced in the majority of broker fuel-surcharge clauses.
How HaulerMath uses it
We pre-fill the "current diesel price" in every fuel-related calculator with this live value so your numbers reflect the real market today — not last quarter. You can always override the slider with your actual pump price.
