Diesel note: diesel prices set a series of all-time records in early September 2026, topping $6.50/gal nationally (AAA's record is $6.53, set Sept. 22, 2026). Prices have since eased somewhat. Diesel typically moves independently of gasoline since it's driven more by freight demand, refinery output mix, and global distillate markets than by consumer driving patterns.
