    When I was making the turn to the Petro, I noticed all of the trucks parked everywhere on the street. I thought, "Wow. This place is really filling up at night, now." Then I found out there's no fuel here according to a post on the Truckers Path app. This is ridiculous.

    Pretty sure its a sign of too much "just in time" mentality in the fuel supply chain. It happens in the winter too, road not good nuff to get fuel/additive = crippled fueling

    Not that the biden fossil fuel positions are helping, but how much is this holdover from texas getting crippled last winter coupled with pent up demand from the past 20 months?

    I haven't ever heard of it happening since what was it the 70s? Only thing that really makes sense now is they can't hire enough fuel haulers to keep up.

    Petro in Kingman also, Crazy freds had plenty of fuel. Little America had fuel also. Seems the big chains are having issues.

    The 70’s so called shortages weren’t really shortages either. There was plenty of oil around just not in the correct spots by political design and economic warfare much as is being waged on the American public by a certain class of individuals who want power
