If you have a certain type of vehicle, you can drive from Boise to Mountain Home with the gas gauge on empty. It turns out there's more gas in the tank than you think.
If you watch the national news, you're probably hearing how low gas prices are this summer. That may be true, but not so much across the state of Idaho.
According to AAA Idaho, our gas prices have remained steady throughout summer months. This is a nice change from increasing summer prices in years past.
Gas prices are averaging about $2.50 a gallon in the Treasure Valley right now, and that's about fifty cents cheaper than it was on the 4th of July last year.
Even better news for drivers - gas prices are expected to dip under the two-dollar mark again this fall and they could crater at a level so low we'll be doing a double take. So how low will they get?
If it seemed your fill-up at the gas station just keeps more and more expensive, you're not imagining things. The typical summer gas price increase is underway across Idaho.
I filled up my car Sunday and was VERY excited to find $.98 per gallon was what I was paying. Now granted, I had Fred Meyer Rewards points, but the starting price was great.
I spotted 87 Octane, No-Lead gasoline for $2.25 a gallon over the weekend. At first I thought it was a radio stunt, but then I saw it again at another station. Granted it was the same owner, but they have many locations across not only the Treasure Valley but the state...
