Drivers are feeling relief at the pump across the country as gas prices continue to fall approaching the busy year-end holiday travel season. Prices have been driven lower by a number of factors, including the switch to winter-blend fuel – which is less expensive to produce – increased gasoline inventories, cheaper crude oil prices, lower demand and economic concerns.
