A dozen states are selling gas for under $1 a gallon.
that five of the six states haven’t seen gas prices this low in over 15 years. For Illinois, the state average of $1.77 hasn’t been this low since November 2008.
DeHaan said chances are good the national average could “eventually drop under the 2008/2009 low as well.” In late December 2008, the national average was $1.59, according to GasBuddy. “I fully expect that as many as half of the nation’s states will ultimately see prices fall to at least decade lows, with perhaps most of them ultimately falling to lows not seen since the early 2000s,” DeHaan said.
Yet, with some parts of the country planning to reopen soon, are consumers expected to be able to take advantage of the low prices? DeHaan believes there is strong potential that gas prices will be lower this summer than previously projected.
