That's all well and dandy, but it's really nothing more than a band-aid on a huge open wound that currently doesn't have anything resembling timely surgical repair. With the Republican Party effectively controlling the price of gas and diesel in the U.S.A. as a result of the ongoing war, the irony is that it's affecting the people who were most likely in the first place to vote for Republicans. Case in point, the aforementioned disaster proclamation issued by Texas Governor Abbott.

The White House has rejected a report claiming it was crafting a 90-day halt on diesel exports, even as President Donald Trump publicly backs keeping American diesel domestic. The national diesel average sits at $6.52 a gallon.

I'm sure by now you've heard all about the rollback of federal fuel economy regulations.

Full-sized SUVs provide incredible utility for hauling large families and towing heavy cargo, but their sheer size usually comes with a steep penalty at the gas pump. Fortunately, modern powertrain technology—from high-efficiency twin-turbo V6s to advanced hybrids and frugal diesels—has made reaching 20+ mpg on the highway an achievable benchmark for many full-size models.

As we continue to report on gas prices and their astronomical rise since the start of the US' recent needless war, the news only gets worse and worse. The most recent round of "Oh no" comes from Indiana, which is reporting that some stations in the middle of the state are cresting $7 per gallon for on-road diesel.

In its perpetual quest to worsen the fuel efficiency or new automobiles and, likewise, put the environment further in harm's way, the current U.S. Federal government is going to be rolling back fuel efficiency standards. They claim it's so the savings in development costs to improve efficiency can be passed on to consumers, but reports simply say that's not the case.

A federal lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania alleges that gas stations within the Freedom Fuel Network—a discount chain praised by the Trump administration—were able to offer steep discounts because they never paid for the gasoline.

To cushion motorists against soaring fuel prices, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has authorized the early sale of winter-blend fuel nationwide.

The ebb and flow of gas prices is a constant, never-ending ordeal.

For millions of drivers, waiting in line at a Costco gas station is a ritual driven by fuel prices that consistently undercut local competitors. The warehouse giant's ability to offer cheaper fuel comes down to a deliberate business strategy that prioritizes customer retention and membership value over individual fuel profit margins.

For some Americans, the brief illusion of relief at the pump has gone almost as quickly as it arrived.

Called the "Freedom Fuel Network," the operation launched its first official location in Philadelphia this week, selling regular-grade gasoline for a flat $3.47 per gallon—a price framed by the White House as a nod to Donald Trump serving as the nation’s 47th president.

Amidst high fuel prices and pseudo-fuel shortages, panic seems to be setting in for some. Many social media news outlets picked up on a story that there might only be six weeks' worth of fuel supply left for Californians, raising alarms about both the ability to actually get gas and the potential for even higher prices at the pump.

Gas prices jumped nearly 46 percent between January and April 2026, but not every driver is feeling the pain equally.

A decade or two ago, crossing the 30-mile-per-gallon threshold was a badge of honor reserved for subcompacts that drove like aluminum soda cans on the highway. Today, thanks to EVs, hybrids, advancements in materials science and engineering, our collective definition of fuel efficiency has undergone a thorough recalibration.

In case you haven't heard, fuel prices are high.

The oil industry meanders throughout the world—spanning from the depths of the physical underground to airplanes flying high in the skies above.

Rising fuel prices are once again reshaping the American car market, but not in quite the way many expected. Instead of triggering a rush toward fully electric vehicles, the recent spike at the pump appears to be driving more buyers toward hybrids.

For a brief moment, it looked like the worst might be over. Gas prices had started to ease, but that didn’t last.

Rising fuel prices are beginning to influence people's vehicle choices, and short-term rentals in the U.S. might be the canary in the coal mine.

Gas theft was once a big thing—remember the accessory locking gas caps made popular in the mid-2000s—and it's coming back with a vengeance. Stories are popping up around the country, not of instances of siphoning to see out the theft of fuel, but rather something more crude: Drilling holes in the gas tank.

It's no secret that, despite the numbers and what some economists and politicians say, the price of things has been increasing at what feels like an exponential rate over the last five years or so.

There's a lot to love about Costco—discounts on bulk items, cheap hot dogs, items you can't get elsewhere, the hot dogs again, and the discounted gas. Now, Costco is going to supplement its on-location gas stations with standalone sites, more akin to a traditional fuel station.

Gas prices are climbing once again across California, but in one remote stretch of the state, they’ve reached levels that sound almost unreal.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is temporarily allowing the sale of gasoline with higher-ethanol content than normal in an effort to ease the pricing pressure Americans are experiencing at the pump.

Gas prices are climbing rapidly again across the United States, and nowhere is the spike more dramatic than in Southern California. In some parts of Los Angeles, drivers are now paying well over $5 per gallon, with one station briefly posting an eye-watering $8.21 for regular unleaded.

Escalating conflict in the Middle East is ripping through global energy markets, raising concerns that disruptions to oil supply could eventually affect fuel prices and, by extension, the automotive industry.

Today, Shell announced the arrival of its latest performance fuel to Canadian Shell stations. It’s called V-Power NITRO+ and according to Shell, it’s been quite the labour of love to get it to market. It’s a fuel that’s been designed to work specifically with gasoline-direct engines (GDI) and that has its challenges.

Your car, truck, or SUV – new or used – is one of the most expensive purchases you’ll ever make. It’s why you want to keep your vehicle at its best for as long as possible, because preserving value is nearly as important as keeping it out of the shop or having it be reliable for you every day. One of the most important parts of preserving your car is running your engine at peak condition, and there are a variety of ways to do just that.

When it’s time to fill up your car or truck’s tank, gas is gas, right? Or is some fuel better than others? The answer is that not all fuels are created equally, and that most cars are designed to use fuel that is better than the bare minimum. What goes into your tank matters for so many different reasons, ranging from long life to how well it’s filtered, and more. So how do you decide which fuel is fit for your ride?

The next time you go to fill up your car, truck, or SUV, ask yourself one question first: does it matter what fuel I use? The answer, according to at least eight of the biggest automakers, is yes. Important enough that those automakers developed their own Top Tier fuel guidelines to decide what needed to be in gasoline and diesel fuels to help your vehicle running cleaner and more efficiently for years to come. Sunoco Ultratech meets this Top Tier fuel standard.
