The cost of diesel continues to climb right next to gas. And while many people are not paying for diesel, they are paying for it by the increased cost of goods.

Beau Holmes owns the Montgomery-based trucking company Quantum Logistics. He says last year it cost around $600 to fill up and now it takes $1,400 per tank and his drivers are filling up at least twice a week.And with a 15-truck fleet, Holmes says this affects his cash flow.
