By A. Reporter · The Morning Ledger · Updated today
Pump prices have drifted upward since the start of the year, and while a few dimes per gallon may not sound like much, the arithmetic compounds quickly for anyone with a commute. The difference lands differently depending on where you live, what you drive, and how often you fill up.
Use the calculator below to see what this year's price change means for your own budget — pick your tank size, your fill-up habit, and your state.
A 15-gallon tank filled four times a month adds up to hundreds of dollars a year at current prices — before tolls, parking, or maintenance. Drivers of larger vehicles, and households in higher-priced states, feel the change first.
