> Gasoline and diesel in California was around $3 3 years ago
That's just an exercise in cherry-picking a starting date. 15 years ago the price of diesel fuel in California was $5. And California is hardly distinguished by its change in nominal fuel price from 2020 to 2023. Gulf coast states for example saw an increase from $2.18 to $3.58.

It is loosely correct to say that on-road diesel prices have been about the same in inflation-adjusted dollars for the last 20 years.
