Gas Prices

Gas prices in Michigan have declined the past four consecutive days, after setting a new 2019-high of $2.48 per gallon, last week. 

After declining 4 cents early last week, gas prices in Michigan jumped 12 cents in the middle of the week. Now it appears additional price-hikes could soon be on the way. 

Gas prices in Michigan are declining, after bouncing an average of 18 cents during the past week. The state average set a new 2019-high of $2.33 per gallon on Thursday, after wholesale gasoline prices surged 17 cents. 

Prices at the pump are off to their lowest start to the month of January since 2016. Gas prices in Michigan are slipping lower again, after rising 8 cents last week. 

According to a recent survey of AAA Michigan members, the make and model of a car took the back seat to gas mileage as the single most important factor that will determine what kind of car AAA members will buy.

Imagine a time when you no longer go to the gas station to fuel up your car. Instead, you plug your car into an electrical outlet, or just fill up the tank with french fry oil. You may not have noticed, but that future is now.
