passed the 2016 peak?

^ with fuel so expensive in many other parts of the world, it does makes you wonder why the biggest contingent of members on the forum is from the U.S.

Have we passed the peak for this year../



US gas prices hit 2.39 a couple of weeks ago, and have been falling ever since.

The multi-year AAA graph a few posts back shows the typical trend is a peak in June / July.

I'm not convinced this year's graph will be typical though. US crude production has been dropping for a few months, and stockpiles are starting to be consumed from record highs.
