The EIA national average for diesel was $6.127 per gallon, down for a second consecutive week and about 40 cents below the September record of $6.529. The national average was $6.352 on October 26, $6.292 on November 2, and $6.127 on November 9.
EIA expects diesel to decline in 2027 but to average $5.03 per gallon, higher than its prior forecast.
Retail diesel is easing from its record, which trims trucking and feed delivery costs in the near term. The outlook for 2027 is still higher than last month's forecast, so relief is expected to be gradual.
