Unless oil prices change course, motorists could easily see pump prices shed another 10-20 cents before 2019, and slip below year-ago levels by Thanksgiving.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Oil Prices Drop $18.00. How Low Will Gas Prices Go?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<p>Crude oil prices declined for a record-setting 10th consecutive day, on Friday. The daily settlement of $60.19 per barrel is the lowest since March.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[320left]In the past month, WTI crude declined a total of $16.00 per barrel on the NYMEX.&nbsp;A loss of that magnitude can ultimately lead to a total discount of 40 cents at the pump. So far, the national average has declined nearly 20 cents since the price of oil started its slide last month.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Domestic crude production reached a new all-time high of 11.6 million barrels per day, according to the Energy Information Administration.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, domestic oil supplies rose for the 8th consecutive week; increasing at total of&nbsp;10% during that time. These shifting fundamentals have helped create a bearish sentiment in fuel markets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Gas Price Tools<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-908%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230091&amp;Action=Follow+Link\" ><span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">GasPrices.AAA.com<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Daily national, state, and metro gas price averages<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-908%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230090&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">AAA Mobile app<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Free app that&nbsp;compares&nbsp;gas prices near you<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-908%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230089&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gas Cost Calculator<\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Determine how much gasoline will cost on your next road trip<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Current and Past Price Averages<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Regular Unleaded Gasoline<\/strong><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;\" width=\"440\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"1\" border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/us.vocuspr.com\/Publish\/522440\/vcsPRAsset_522440_105553_279a6033-181d-4f41-a971-72bcb183d553_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"75\" height=\"54\"><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Sunday<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Saturday<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Week Ago<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Month Ago<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>One Year Ago<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><strong>2018 High<\/strong><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><strong>Record High<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>National<\/strong><\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.703<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.712<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.765<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.910<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.561<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><strong>$2.97<\/strong>&nbsp;(5\/26\/2018)<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><strong>$4.11&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp; (7\/17\/2008)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td bgcolor=\"#F3F3F3\"><strong>Georgia<\/strong><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#F3F3F3\" align=\"right\">$2.567<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#F3F3F3\" align=\"right\">$2.577<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#F3F3F3\" align=\"right\">$2.639<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#F3F3F3\" align=\"right\">$2.802<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#F3F3F3\" align=\"right\">$2.412<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#F3F3F3\" align=\"right\"><strong>$2.84<\/strong>&nbsp;(5\/27\/2018)<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#F3F3F3\" align=\"right\"><strong>$4.16&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp; (9\/15\/2008)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Tennessee<\/strong><\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.496<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.504<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.551<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.689<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.335<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><strong>$2.73<\/strong>&nbsp;(5\/27\/2018)<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><strong>$4.12<\/strong> (9\/15\/2008)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"8\" bgcolor=\"#A7A7A7\" align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-908%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230088&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">Click here<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;to view current gasoline price averages<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n[320center]<\/p>\n<h3>Gas Price Survey Methodology<\/h3>\n<p>AAA updates fuel price averages daily at&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e-908%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=230087&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.GasPrices.AAA.com<\/a>.
