Drivers Finally Catch A Break As Gas Drops For First Sustained Time This Year ... Down 14 Cents Per Gallon

While the high cost states like California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, and Alaska are skewing the national average with per gallon costs roughly 50 cents or more higher, the AAA daily tracker is an effective and contemporaneous way to understand where energy costs are moment to moment nationally.
