Gas prices average above $3.50 in 49 states now, and many states on the coasts especially, are hovering close to the $4 mark. Chris Lafakis of Moody's Analytics says that $4 mark is when people change their habits, not to mention the way the view the economy.
Gas prices are already 41 cents higher than they were in April 2008, when gas reached its peak of $4.11 in mid-July. The common price in Des Moines seems to be $3.69 right now, but prices in the $3.50s can still be found in some spots. We're still below the national average.
