Gas Prices

So how about you? Have you downsized your summer plans this year? Or do you refuse to give up on enjoying your normal summer activities?

Governor Mark Gordon recently announced that, as a response to rising gasoline prices, he has created a Gas and Diesel Price Working Group that will "focus on ways to find relief for consumers feeling the pinch of rising fuel costs."

Gas prices hit Wyoming truck drivers hardest - so much so that the Cowboy State is in the top ten states with the worst gas prices for truck and SUV owners.

Are gas prices forcing you to re-think your summer plans?

Are gas prices affecting your life? Are you worried that they will if this continues?

We've seen gas prices on the uptick, but for a while but not as much as what we're seeing in other spots around the country, as issues have continued overseas. However, believe it or not, the national average gas price is actually down from where it was last week, but Wyoming has certainly seen an increase.

Senator John Barrasso recently spoke outside of the Senate chambers to address rising gasoline prices, inflation, and more. As always, the Wyoming Senator made no bones about who he believes to be at fault for these high prices.

The average U.S. price of regular-grade gasoline shot up a whopping 79 cents over the past two weeks to $4.43 per gallon.

What do you think about the recent increases in gas prices?

As we are heading into the first weekend in March, gas prices are on the uptick, but not nearly as much as what we're seeing in other spots around the country, as issues continue to escalate overseas. The national average gas price is up over a full quarter from where it was last week, but Wyoming's increase is a little over half that.
