A 4-cent drop in the national average price of at-pump diesel fuel in the most recent week has the U.S. average at $2.031 per gallon, according to the Department of Energy’s weekly report.
This is the lowest diesel has been since the week of March 16, 2009, and if prices continue to drop as they have, next week could potentially see prices drop below $2 per gallon for the first time since February 2005.
