gas prices

Fourth of July gas prices in Montana were higher this year than any of the past six years says petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan, and the price appears to be stuck. "It's been a pretty quiet week across Montana as July 4 has come and now gone," DeHaan said...

A slow increase in gas prices hit the state this past week.

The average price for a gallon of gas in Montana is up during the second week of January, even though prices fell for the country at large.

Montana gas prices rose by 3 cents during the week before Christmas, putting the statewide average price of a gallon of gas at $2.99.

Montana is now one of only four states where the average price for a gallon of gas is under three dollars.

Gas prices nationwide dipped a little during the third full week of June, but the same can't be said for prices in Montana.
