Map Shows Freedom Fuel Prices as Supplier Accused of Not Paying for Cheap Gas
Since last month, Freedom Fuel stations were no longer selling gas below market prices, according to GasBuddy data.
A lawsuit claims that KRSM, a company that purchased fuel for Freedom Fuel stations, did not pay for $4 million worth of gasoline purchased from Mansfield Oil Company last month. Mansfield Oil Company denies the claim, stating it is an accounting dispute. The lawsuit does not name Freedom Fuel as a defendant. Freedom Fuel, a chain of gas stations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, was praised by President Donald Trump for offering below-market gas prices.
However, the lawsuit could provide an answer to how the company was able to offer such low prices when fuel costs have risen significantly across the country due to the Iran war.
