Gas prices near lowest level in 4 years ahead of July 4

Gas prices are near a four-year summer low, with the national average at $3.16, a 10% decrease from last year. Over 61 million people are expected to travel this holiday, benefiting from cheaper crude oil and increased OPEC+ output. Despite Trump's claims of sub-$2 gas, prices remain above that threshold, and are likely to stay at current levels.
