Gas Prices took another dip this week, dropping another nine cents.
“This is the first time in 5 weeks that gas has gone below four dollars a gallon.”
That’s Adrienne Woodland, Spokesperson for AAA the Auto Club Group in Michigan. She says motorists are seeing some slight relief at the pump as gas prices fell. She adds that “if crude oil prices continue to decline, it’s likely that pump prices will follow suit.”
Gas prices in Michigan decreased 9 cents compared to last week. Michigan drivers are now paying an average of $3.95 per gallon for regular unleaded. This price is 31 cents less than this time last month but still $1.16 more than this time last year.
Motorists are now paying an average of $59 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline; an increase of about $8 from when prices were their highest last November.
Right now, the most expensive gas price averages can be found in Traverse City, Marquette and Ann Arbor with the least expensive averages in Grand Rapids (at 3.87), Lansing and Saginaw.
