Unfortunately, no matter where you live, gas prices in the United States have skyrocketed since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and things have only gotten worse since Russia invaded Ukraine in early 2022. While gas prices in
Oklahoma
are still lower than the national average—regular gas currently costs $4.535 per gallon while diesel fuel is running $5.336—they are still exponentially higher than they were a year ago. Here’s why:
