Drivers in the Denver metro area are getting an unexpected break at the pump just as the Thanksgiving travel rush begins. Several gas stations across the city posted prices below $2 per gallon on Sunday, marking one of the lowest price points seen in the region in recent years.
The dip comes at a crucial time, with millions of Americans preparing to hit the road for the holiday. Travel analysts say the sudden price drop is driven by a combination of easing global oil costs, higher regional supply, and slower-than-expected seasonal demand.
Local residents quickly took notice, with lines forming at some of the lowest-priced stations throughout the day. “I haven’t seen prices like this in ages,” said one Denver driver. “Right before Thanksgiving? It’s a gift.”
AAA estimates that Thanksgiving 2025 could set new travel records, and cheaper fuel is expected to further boost road trips across Colorado and beyond.
While analysts caution that sub-$2 prices may not last long, they say the trend could continue through the holiday weekend as long as supply remains strong and market pressures stay low.
