gas prices

The price of gasoline has been going down across New Jersey, and the news just keeps getting better.

It's a welcome bit of good news for Garden State drivers: prices at the pump have dropped about 35 cents per gallon over the past month and a half and the trend should continue later this fall.

Thursday is the cheapest day for motorists to fill up at the pump in New Jersey, according to a recent study from GasBuddy.com.

The Iraq scare seems to have subsided for the moment, as far as oil prices go. That means New Jersey drivers are likely to get a break next time they fuel up.

Initial concern over Iraq's oil supply, in light of the ongoing fighting there, has subsided somewhat.

Violence in Iraq is pushing U.S. gasoline prices higher, depriving drivers of the usual price break between Memorial Day and July Fourth.

With renewed fighting in Iraq, New Jersey drivers are worried they may be in for another round of pump price hikes -- just when they thought it was safe to return to the gas station.

If you are planning to take a road trip this upcoming holiday weekend, you may be surprised to find gas prices higher than expected -- but the good news is, those prices should drift lower in the coming weeks and months.

Despite the rough winter, the cost of driving is down 2.7 percent this year, according to AAA's annual "Your Driving Costs" study.

The price of gasoline has been on the rise this spring, to the frustration of many New Jersey drivers, but better news is in sight.
