After setting a record of $4.89 on June 13, the average price of a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline in Florida has dropped during the past two weeks and was at $4.67 on Monday, according to the AAA auto club.
AAA pointed to decreases in crude-oil and gasoline-futures prices amid concerns about the broader economy.
“Gas prices are moving in a favorable direction, as millions of Americans prepare to embark on an Independence Day road trip,” AAA spokesman Mark Jenkins said in a prepared statement. “Despite the recent declines, gas prices are still likely to be the highest for this holiday in history.”
The average price a year ago in Florida was $2.94 a gallon. The most expensive gas in Florida is in the West Palm Beach, Gainesville, and Naples areas, while the least expensive is in the Fort Walton Beach, Pensacola, and Panama City areas, according to AAA.
