For the first time in six years, Gator Country drivers will witness the lowest summer gasoline prices! This, according to the Energy Department.

I see that the national average price is expected to fall 32 percent from 2014 to $2.45 a gallon between now and September, the period when Americans do most of their driving.

That would mark the lowest seasonal average since 2009, according to the Lake Charles American Press.

However, we've got a bunch of gas and oil companies that think low gas prices suck. Those low prices mean folks losing jobs. Kind of double edged sword, if you think about it.

The average price of gasoline in the U.S. was $2.38 a gallon Tuesday, down 33 percent from last year, according to AAA and GasBuddy.com.
