Texas, Hurry And Fill Up Your Car While Gas Prices Are Dropping
Texans are excited because gas prices are dropping in The Lone Star State! Over the last two weeks, the cost of filling up has been steadily going down, and we've got all the juicy details.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline in Texas fell to $3.16 this week, marking a sweet drop from the previous $3.19 per gallon (EIA Energy) (EIA). And it’s not just a small dip—this marks a significant trend as prices have been steadily decreasing across the state.
The drop is thanks to a combination of factors, including lower crude oil prices and increased supply. Plus, summer blend gas, which is typically more expensive due to environmental regulations, hasn't pushed prices up as much as expected. It's like the perfect storm, but in a good way!
In Corpus Christi, drivers are seeing even better deals at the pump. The Caller Times reports that local prices are some of the lowest in the state, making it an even better time to hit the beach or take a scenic drive (EIA Energy).
So, what's next? Well, if these trends continue, we could be looking at even more savings as we roll into summer. Keep your eyes on the gas stations and your wallets happy, Texas!
This awesome update on your summer fuel savings was brought to you by a blend of sources from the Caller Times and the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Happy driving!
