Diesel prices in Louisiana have never been higher. The statewide average for diesel is almost $5.59 a gallon. Interestingly, this comes as the average for regular unleaded gasoline is not close to record territory – currently at $3.85, well short of the record of almost $4.56, set in June of 2022. Don Redman with AAA says the United States, being one of the leading exporters of diesel, is having to export a lot more, especially to Europe.
