Drivers in New Jersey and around the nation continue to see gas prices drop, but analysts warn that cheaper prices may not last long into the new year.
AAA Mid-Atlantic says the average price of a gallon of regular gas in the state on Friday was $2.46, down three cents from a week ago. Drivers were paying $2.50 a gallon a year ago at this time.
The national average gas price Friday was $2.39 a gallon, down another nickel from last week. Last year at this time, drivers were paying $2.45 a gallon.
Analysts say crude oil prices have started to rebound following OPEC’s decision to cut production beginning in January — and if oil prices rise, so will gas prices.

Imagine if Obama was in office. “ the messiah has made sure that has levels keep plummeting. There is no end in sight. He is the messiah we have all been waiting for to give us low gas prices (which he did the opposite).”
But since it’s Trump, there’s always the negative attached to anything positive. Especially when he claims anything the liberal press disagrees with, “without evidence”. Never ever said that by those pathological liars, Obama or Clinton.
