Gasoline prices in the United States are nearing their lowest since 2004.
While most of the world sells gas by the liter,the United States sells gas by the gallon.Either way,most of the world pays much more for gas and fuel than the U.S.
The average price in the U.S.was $2.06 per gallon for unleaded regular,according to the American Automobile Association(AAA).That is about 54 cents per liter.
The average price dropped another penny over the Thanksgiving holiday to 53 cents per liter.That is according to GasBuddy.com,a service that reports on U.S.gas prices.
That would be 21 cents per liter less than a year ago,and 34 cents cheaper per liter than in 2013,GasBuddy says.
Because nearly 90 percent of Americans will travel by car over the winter holidays,the savings will add up.
