We stopped for gas at Albuquerque, NM. This was one of the coldest stops so far. The ride on I-40 late night was freezing cold, I mean literally below 32F. We experienced areas on I-40 where the temperature dipped down to 19F degrees. That’s freaking cold weather especially from a couple of California natives.

We found out later that the prices of gas gets cheaper as the distance between the oil refineries deceases.
