Gas Prices Week of 4/10/06
Andrew Norton
$2.71 is the average price you can expect to pay for one gallon of regular unleaded gasoline this week. At the Fuel Gauge Report it shows that just a short month ago we were only paying $2.46 per gallon. $3 per gallon, here we come! :( Meanwhile, gas stations are fighting back with an advertising campaign that they hope will turn drivers' anger on the correct parties - Big Oil. Remember, independent gas station owners do not have a lot of control over the prices and they don't get to share in all of the big profits being generated by the oil industry these days.
Check out the Smart Commute Program in Traverse City that could become a model for a statewide program.
What are your thoughts on the price of gas? Will you stay close to home this summer?
