Why is this Javascript code stopping execution in my for loop?

I'm learning Javascript and wrote a small program. I have a method inside my object with a for loop. Why is my console showing output when my fuel value is at 5. It should still iterate through the loop right?

    let car = {

    make : "Chevy",
    year : "2022",
    model : "Malibu",
    fuel : 0,
    started : false,

    start: function(){
        this.started = true;
    },

    stop: function(){
        this.started = false;
    },

    drive: function(){
        if(this.fuel > 0){
            if(this.started){
              for(let i = 0; i < this.fuel; i++){
                console.log(`Enjoying the drive in my ${this.make} --${this.model}`);
                console.log(`Fuel before deduction ${this.fuel}`);
                this.fuel = this.fuel - 1;
                console.log(`Fuel after drive = ${this.fuel}`);
              }
            }else{
                console.log(`You need to start the car to be able to drive`);
                this.stop();
            }
        }else{
            console.log("You need to fuel the car to be able to dirve");
            this.stop();
        }
    },

    addFuel: function(amount){
        this.fuel += amount;

        console.log(`Fuel Added ${this.fuel}`);
    }
};

car.drive();

car.addFuel(10);

car.drive();

car.start();

car.drive();
