The last time I remember seeing diesel cheaper than gasoline leaded gas was still an option.
OceanLibra@reddit
Yeah, everyone who voted for the orange man messed up.
tributarybattles@reddit
orange man bad, no kings protest but welcoming a king..... TDS.
OceanLibra@reddit
There's a tremendous difference in welcoming a king from another country and letting a king take over and rule America. If your freeble little mind can't figure that out on your own, you've got much bigger problems
tributarybattles@reddit
I'm sorry Charlie, but no kings MEANS no kings. here's the issue, you goobers are reactionary. instead of being proactive, you protest when Trump farts in the wrong direction.
OceanLibra@reddit
Actually, when we say no Kings, we mean no Kings to rule America. It's actually pretty simple.
vexumy@reddit
Last time I knew, he was our president, not our king. Let us know when the title changes tho, because a protest isn’t doing shit if he wanted to do what he wanted to do 🤣🤣🤣
OceanLibra@reddit
You’re being deliberately obtuse.
vexumy@reddit
You’re being emotionally illogical.
tributarybattles@reddit
nah, you can't be cool with Kim Jung UN and then TDS like seizures when Trump farts on a Tuesday
OceanLibra@reddit
Whatever dude, continue supporting your known pedophile and rapist the one who thinks he is Christ.
Randomfactoid42@reddit
Along with everybody who didn’t vote.
dorkwingduck@reddit
There was nobody worth voting for, at least in the two major parties. The Democrats were going to do this shit too...
Back-doorSanta@reddit
False equivalence dude. No Kamala wasn’t going to start a war with Iran. Thats fucking dumb.
vexumy@reddit
You’re right, she would have just told them “don’t” and expected them to listen 🤣🤣 then they’d build a nuclear weapon, and then hold the straight hostage and cause this exact situation, except worse because nobody could touch them if they had a nuclear weapon.
Snookfilet@reddit
No, Kamala would have just opened the border back up and gone back to all the weird sex stuff and speech censorship. The democrats want to destroy the country from the inside, Trump and the republicans want to destroy it from the outside and apparently blow up the rest of the world with it for Israel.
OceanLibra@reddit
You say the Democrats want to destroy com the country but your orange man is actively destroying the country as we speak and you don't seem to care at all. Weird.
Snookfilet@reddit
Apparently you only read the first half. Weird.
OceanLibra@reddit
I'm not going to entertain your baseless sabor rattling, especially while you're happily supporting a known rapist and pedophile.
WaywardKingJ@reddit
Shhh, let them cope lol. What's hilarious is half the people shit talking Trump were praising him before election. In reality they were both shit options but I'd still have to say he was the lesser of two evils.
mr-doctor2u@reddit
Thats the truth
thxby@reddit
70 million morons voted for this.
DreamsServedSoft@reddit
clear as day huh? gas prices and inflation skyrocketed from 2021-2024 but the president didn’t control them during those years. why is that?
socialrage@reddit
The biggest problem I have with MAGA is they don't history at all.
If they did they'd see that when the fuel prices jumped under the previous administration is had to do with a particular geopolitical event.
The reason why fuel has risen this time is because of the direct actions of the President of the United States.

Cleaning up Obama missteps. The Neville Chamberlain of our time. It just took a little longer for Iranians to get set up.
Timmy98789@reddit
Calls it is.
echo78@reddit
Okay but I'd stop there anyway because if I'm sure as hell not driving through Wisconsin without stopping at a Kwik Trip.
ntech620@reddit
They have a few in Iowa now too. Sioux City picked up two of them recently.
NJNeal17@reddit
I'm willing to bet that at some time during his career they had all 4s for Favre.

The pumps will be right, sign is probably wrong but the pumps wont be
Maleficent_Lake_1816@reddit (OP)
That’s what I thought as well
xoutlawtrucker@reddit
I think it flipped (when diesel became more expensive than gas) in around 2004. With the start of the Iraq war
AaronTuplin@reddit
It was also the timing of the Ultra Low Sulfur mandate. Sulfur content was reduced from 500 parts per million to 15 parts per million. Which brought significant refining cost increases
TruckinTuba@reddit
During trumps first term, my home town had diesel for $1.95 and diesel was $1.98
_daddyl0nglegs_@reddit
This happened not too long ago... It's supply and demand. Less diesel is being purchased so there's more reserves of it, thus the cheaper cost over gasoline.
BlacktopProphet@reddit
It flipped back in... What.... Like 2004ish? The last time I remember diesel being cheaper I could fill both my tanks on my f150 for $30. So has was $0.80-something a gallon.
_daddyl0nglegs_@reddit
This actually happened in southern CA like a year ago or so. Maybe it wasn't this way in every market, but I remember specifically when diesel was just below 87 octane.
I was hauling fuel during this time and had many conversations with old timers about it.
Pur3k0912@reddit
It was cheaper in alot of places during the last admin though? Its all about supply and demand. Diesel should realistically be alot cheaper than it is for the majority of the time but its kept more expensive.
Usernameavailabl@reddit
It was in 1999. I bought a new superduty 7.3 and it went up and never came back down. My bad.
socialrage@reddit
Russia invading Ukraine causing a shock to the market anybody?
Pur3k0912@reddit
Bro the pope could sneeze in the general direction of the middle east and it would probably cause the global fuel market to fluctuate.
Aster_Yellow@reddit
I remember seeing cheaper in 07 or 08 in a handful of places but it was not the norm.
Slayr79@reddit
Does that finally mean a market crash is around the corner? It’s about time
DreamsServedSoft@reddit
not the way you want it. the 08 crash was largely due to banks handing out loans to any and everyone without checking if they could actually pay them back
Slayr79@reddit
That’s currently happening with Brokerages and Market Makers (i.e. Citadel) They stated on their financial statements a few years ago that they have on their books “45.764 Billion shares sold, not yet purchased” they’re selling everyone fake shares and not buying them
Fellthefox@reddit
When gas first spiked pointe sent me 2+ hours to a TA out of route because it was where gas was supposedly cheaper.
I got there, lot was absolutely filled to the gills, and the pumps were out of service.
Mess up like these screw over drivers
hoppertn@reddit
Must have been A-Aron.
