Nashville, TN – Gas prices across the state dropped six cents, on average, over last week. The Tennessee Gas Price average is now $2.79 which is two cents more expensive than one month ago but 31 cents less than one year ago.
“Gas prices are moving in a much more favorable direction for drivers, likely due to both crude oil and gasoline futures prices dropping last week,” said Megan Cooper, spokeswoman, AAA – The Auto Club Group. “We’ll likely see some fluctuation in our gas prices this week, but lower oil prices should help to keep a ceiling on prices at the pump in the short term.”
