My rule of thumb is that the national average pump price will typically be 65 cents higher than the NYMEX price, ... Most of that will get passed to consumers within three weeks.

Oil and natural gas prices have fallen sharply from their post-hurricane highs. However, production from the Gulf of Mexico is still down by more than 15 percent, keeping supplies tight. As of mid-March, the national average retail price of diesel fuel was around $2.55 per gallon, 60 cents below the record set after Rita but 35 cents (16 percent) higher than a year ago.

We often see price increases in January. What's particularly troubling for consumers is that the average price for the first month of 2006 is starting at a much higher level than it did a year ago.

The current average price of $1.90 a gallon is still about 40 cents higher than the level a year ago. So the effect of higher prices will be felt for some time.

Having said that, I think that on average prices will go higher. I suspect when we do our weekly pump price survey next week, we could well see prices push a little higher than they are today.

Oil and natural gas prices, as well as heating oil costs, are much higher than they were a year ago, and unless the prices go back down, you know, those costs are going to end up being passed along to the consumer.

Drivers are now paying an average price that is 27 cents higher than a year ago. And last year was no picnic.

Motorists can expect two to three weeks more of price increases that could send the average price of regular as high as $3.10 to $3.20 per gallon.

Tennessee typically parallels the national average or stays just a few cents below it.

The basic aim is to be more competitive, and I think that helps improve the situation for consumers. If they had to sell it all at one price, it would tend to be a higher price.

We calculated it three different ways so nobody can complain. We did it by average price, by median price and then average price per square foot. The reason for price per square foot is if someone goes into a ZIP code and builds 800 or 1,000 condominiums where they traditionally have 2,300-square-foot single-family homes, we didn't want that number to be skewed.
