    Has nothing to do with fuel prices.

    It's the cheap rates.

    With all of the "gloom and doom" talk about fuel prices, there have been NO calls for building new refineries in the US. I would assume it would take several years to get a new refinery up and running. And we all know this "electric" vehicle won't replace fossil fuel vehicles no matter what the politician's say.

    It’s cheaper to park the truck than to run it IMO

    On the business news this morning they were discussing China re-opening and how their demand for diesel will cause an ever rising price of diesel. One man said the price range here could be between $7-$8 a gallon by mid summer.
