Gas prices in Texas are holding steady at $3.644 per gallon this week, according to the latest data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). This is significantly lower than the national average of $4.096 per gallon, giving Texas drivers a break at the pump.
While gas prices have remained stable, diesel prices continue to be a burden for many drivers. The national average for diesel is currently $5.313 per gallon, though specific data for Texas was not provided this week.
Texas stands out as one of the most affordable states for gas in the country. With prices 11.04% below the national average, drivers in the Lone Star State are paying notably less than the rest of the nation. For context, California has the highest gas prices in the country at $5.489 per gallon, while Texas boasts the lowest at $3.644.
For those keeping track, the spread between gas and diesel prices remains substantial. While exact figures for Texas diesel were not available, the national average shows a significant gap between the two fuels. As always, the EIA provides valuable insights into the ever-changing landscape of fuel costs.
