In recent weeks, gasoline prices have been on a downward trend, with average U.S. prices set to drop below $3 for the first time since 2021. Experts note that this decline is occurring despite various global crises and upcoming elections. Various regions, including Idaho and South Carolina, have reported significant savings at the pump, while prices in areas like Michiana and Greater Cleveland have seen declines of over 30 cents in the past month. Even amid hurricane disruptions, gas prices continue to slide, providing relief to drivers nationwide.
