US Gasoline Prices Stay Above Last Year Despite Falling Crude
EIA's July 6 survey priced regular unleaded at $3.777 a gallon, official government data for the week.
- Prices fell $0.054 from the week before, tracking crude oil's own recent decline.
- The same gallon still costs $0.652 more than it did exactly one year ago.
- EIA compiles this national average every Monday under its Gasoline and Diesel Fuel Update program.
Why it mattersGasoline that falls slower than crude never tracked the market; it tracked what drivers would still pay.
