Gas Prices

In 1995, the US national average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was $1.15. That is equal to about $1.65 per gallon in 2010 dollars.

what ranch of government is in charge of the gas pices

WOW have you got it backwards.

Israel does not want war.

Some of the countries around Israel would rather see nuclear war than allow Israel to exist.

And yes we will have to pay for oil when war drives the price up.

A: That's the very point I've been trying to make since joining answers, there is no need to be paying the price for these wars by buying oil products. Yes the price of oil will go up. And yes there is Religious trouble in the middle East, and there will always be trouble, as long as the sons of Abraham are remembered. This is when the West should step back from it, and monitor nuclear activity in the sector. The program of non fossil fueled transport, should be of Western priority. Or Am I reading the wrong books.

Gasoline prices, at least in many parts of the world, have fallen recently because of the drop in demand. For example the economic slowdown in the US has led to less automobile travel, thus lowering the demand for gasoline. The refiners of gasoline lower their prices to try to encourage more consumption. Supply and demand, even though some fuzzy-headed economists deny it, is still a very powerful market force. In my opinion gas goes lower because of financial crisis in America and Europe as lot of factories reduced their production masively there became lot of free oil which nobody wanted to buy so OPEC lowered dayly limits of getting oil but as usuall it doesnt work Sry for bad english..:-)

Any answer given is relative. As raw numbers go, gas hit it's height during the days and weeks after 9/11 when gougers were charging $7-$8 per gallon in some places, this under the office of George Bush. The height of market prices fall under the Obama administration. The highest by comparison to wages would go to Woodrow Wilson when gas was .20¢ a gallon, but the average American annual income was $1,500.00. At 15 mpg, the old Model T would have tipped a whopping $113.00 a year to run (10,000 mile yearly average), about 14% of the year's bankroll.

The average cost of gasoline per gallon in the United States in 1969 was approximately 35 cents. Of course since then there has been a dramatic rise in oil and gas consumption. Gasoline is derived from crude oil. Crude oil prices are driven by international supply and demand. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), owns more than 2/3 of the crude oil produced in the world. The United States is heavily dependant on oil products and is subject to OPEC's increased crude oil prices. I was pumping gas in the summer of 1969. I don't think our price ever went over 25.9. During a gas war it went to 16.9 or 17.9. If you don't remember gas wars, the "company stations" would sell at a loss trying to force the independents out of business.

The average price of a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline in 2007 was $2.80

In 1972, the US national average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was 36 cents. That is equal to about $1.88 per gallon in 2010 dollars.

In 1975, the US national average price of a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline was 57 cents - equivalent to about $2.31 per gallon in 2010.

In 1998 the motor industry was still using whale oil as their primary source of fuel. By 1999, the fuel industry caught on to something called 'fossil fuels', and thus, a revolution was born.

It was about 100 rubles per gigalitre.

According to COSTCO, they monitor the nearby gas stations and attempt to keep their prices lower than those in a 3-5 mile radius. I have been told that they may change their prices several times per day depending on the fluctuation of other prices in their area.

This is the price of crude oil. The amounts will vary depending on the supply and demand that is placed on the oil.

The gas prices of PA were $2.79 which was almost $3.00.

The gas prices in 1996 ranged from poo to crap.

The average price of gasoline in 2001 was around $1.64 of a gallon

I got gas yesterday (30 May 2011) for 1.65 EUR per liter. There are about four liters in a gallon (liters are slightly smaller than quarts). The current USD to EUR exchange rate is at 0.69. That's 6.60 EUR or $9.57 USD per gallon.

Gas pump prices that are around $3 a gallon now may seem like a bargain by the time your kids are on Easter egg hunts.

Pump prices have risen nearly 9 percent since Dec. 1 and topped $3.10 a gallon this week. That's the highest level since October 2008. The price may rise or fall a little over the next few months, but analysts expect it to range between $3.20 and $3.75 gallon by March and April ahead of the summer driving season.

The national average for regular gasoline about $3.12 a gallon on Friday, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service. That's nearly 12 cents more than a month ago and 38 cents above a year ago.

Average pump prices range from $2.81 to $3.70 in major cities. For example, the average in Salt Lake City is $2.74 a gallon and in New Orleans it's $2.97 a gallon. Drivers in San Francisco pay $3.44 a gallon, and in Honolulu gas is $3.58 a gallon.

Americans typically drive less in the winter. Demand is about 1 percentage point higher than a year ago but remains weaker than the historical average, said energy analyst Jim Ritterbusch. The nation's gasoline supplies remain above the five-year average.

Over the next couple of months, refineries will conduct regular maintenance to prepare for the changeover to summer driving mixes. That could affect supplies, but gas prices should remain steady to a few cents more, according to oil analyst Tom Kloza of Oil Price Information Service.

By spring he expects the average price to rise to between $3.50 and $3.75 a gallon. Ritterbusch expects $3.20 to $3.25 a gallon by Memorial Day.

For every penny the price at the pump increases, it costs consumers overall an additional $4 million, according to Cameron Hanover analyst Peter Beutel. If the price goes up a dime a gallon, consumers pay $40 million more each day for that increase.

Crude oil prices fell again on Friday as traders speculated about whether China may impose more restrictions to control the growth of its economy, and looked for more signs that the U.S. economy is headed for better days

The US average in 2010 was $2.79 per gallon. That would be about $3.00 per gallon in today's dollars (2014).

In The year 1986 gasoline was .89 a gallon. I was (as the youth call it today ) "Ghostriding the whip" quite a bit. lol
