Gas prices on the rise again

Monday February 28 by Drew Husatoday
Gasoline rose 6 cents per gallon at the pump in the past two weeks, surpassing the all-time peak recorded in November 1990, industry analyst Trilby Lundberg said Sunday. High crude oil prices and strong demand combined to drive up the national average price, including all grades and taxes, to $1.47 as of Friday. That was an increase of 6.08 cents from Feb. 11, according to the Lundberg Survey of 10,000 stations nationwide. Before now, the highest average price for a gallon of gasoline in the U.S. was $1.46 in 1990, Lundberg said.
