油价上涨促使消费者涌向部落加油站
Read, Watch or Listen
Fort Collins, Colo. — Drivers this week traveled to tribally owned gas stations to buy cheaper fuel as pump prices rose after conflict involving Iran began in February. Junelle Lewis drove to the Tulalip Reservation and filled her Suburban at Tulalip Market for $4.84 per gallon, about $0.75 less than local Seattle-area stations. The immediate result has been increased patronage at reservation stations, enabled in part by tribal exemptions from state fuel taxes and located along travel corridors in states such as California, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma and Washington. Apps like GasBuddy are identifying these prices for motorists, and reporting notes nationwide gasoline averages rose by more than $1 since February, prompting consumer shifts this week.
