From USA Today:
The average price for regular gasoline across the USA was a record $3.508 a gallon Monday, eclipsing the inflation-adjusted peak of $3.413 set in March 1981, when the average was $1.417, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
Separately, AAA and the Oil Price Information Service reported a U.S. average of $3.503 Monday, up 1.2 cents overnight and first time above $3.50.
The two surveys emphasize what Americans already know: However it's measured, gasoline is more expensive than it's ever been. That hurts.
