gas prices 4Gas prices are falling at a consistency not seen in nearly two years. On Sunday the average price in Tennessee fell for the 46th day in a row, for a total discount of 27 cents. These are the longest streaks of decline seen at the pump since the period of October 2014 to January 2015, when prices fell 120 consecutive days, According to a spokesman for the AAA – The Auto Club Group “Gas prices are dropping due to abundant fuel supplies and declining crude oil costs. Average prices are 57 cents less than a year ago, and that’s motivating millions of Americans to take advantage of cheaper gas to take road trips this summer.”
The state average for regular unleaded dipped below the $2 a gallon threshold in Tennessee on July 15. According to the web site Gas Buddy, the lowest price for a gallon of gas in Tullahoma is $1.77 and in Manchester it’s $1.75.
