Poteau fuel watch: Casey’s diesel below average while regular stays flat
Poteau OK Gas & Diesel Watch – Casey’s diesel is below the Le Flore-Sequoyah average, while Super 87 regular is basically in line for Poteau drivers.
Casey’s at 3102 N Broadway St in Poteau is posting diesel at $4.91 a gallon and Super 87 regular at $3.95. The store page says those prices were updated about an hour ago.
Diesel is the better local story right now. Casey’s diesel sits about 12 cents below AAA’s Le Flore-Sequoyah county average of $5.028, while Super 87 regular is essentially even with the county average of $3.951.
That matters most for people who fuel up often: commuters in diesel pickups, contractors, haulers, delivery drivers, landscapers, farmers and small businesses that burn through gallons quickly. Even a small gap can trim a little off weekly operating costs.
For broader context, AAA puts Oklahoma’s average at $3.946 for regular and $5.004 for diesel, while the national averages are $4.520 and $5.636. EIA’s weekly fuel data also show national gasoline and diesel prices running higher in early May than they were in late April.
The takeaway for Poteau readers is simple: diesel buyers have a modest edge at this Casey’s stop, regular-gas buyers are paying about the local average, and both grades are still below national levels. If you’re seeing a higher or lower pump price around town, share the highest and lowest prices you’re spotting locally.
