Gas Prices Steady

Dallas, TX – Gasoline prices in Texas are down slightly or holding steady, after a run-up during the past few weeks.

Dan Ronan is with Triple A Texas.

Ronan: We'll probably peak in terms of gasoline prices sometime between now and June for the year, unless something happens on the international front that we can't predict. So, we've got a period over the next five or six weeks where gas prices may go up a little bit.

But Ronan says it won't be the five to ten cent weekly increases we saw in March and early April.

The average price for a gallon of regular, unleaded in Dallas is $2.75, a drop of two cents from last week. Average Fort Worth prices are down three cents, at $2.74.
