Do we have a thread from that "wbtnumbernumbernumber" guy mentioning how we need to reapply the gas pump stickers he said we needed to remove when gas dropped a few cents?

It is freaking late January.

No One is
taking advantage of the recent milder weather in much of the nation by fueling up and hitting the road.

Forgive me if I trust AAA's expertise over your opinion.

About month ago a gallon of regular was $2.69. Now I'm seeing $3.15 all over the place. What happened?

I'd say perception/reality of a shrinking economy has had some negative impact on demand. To some degree it's discretionary spending. Inflation on other non discretionary items like food , power , clothing also leaves less for discretionary gas spending. As someone also mentioned, gasoline supply has also recovered some after the big freeze event .

Diesel on the other hand hasn't moved nearly as much because of steadier demand.

Election is over.

The government is no longer using the SPR to keep help the Democrats and is now having to buy oil to refill the SPR so taking oil off the market.
