I always thought it was due to less demand in the winter months. People driving shorter distances (no summer road trips, etc.) = using less fuel = decrease in demand. It’s true.

But what you are saying is true too:

> Gas stations sell a special, more expensive fuel blend during the summer to cut down on smog during hot months. Stations nationwide will start selling a less-expensive winter fuel blend Friday, which could lead to even lower prices, analysts said.

Just want to be clear. You think oil will drop another $50/barrell.

I def agree I think it has a lot more to do with the economy(or lack there of) than the election. it will go back up, diesel is still $$$$ though. Heating fuel is still $$$$ I’m glad i made the decision to get off it when I did.
