(May 9, 2008)--The weekly AAA-Texas gas price survey released Friday shows regular self-serve is averaging a record-high $3.54 per gallon in the 11 areas surveyed, a penny more than last week.
The national average price climbed 2 cents to $3.65 per gallon.
Auto club spokeswoman Rose Rougeau says record-high crude oil prices topping $120 per barrel continue to push up gas prices at the pump.
The most expensive gas in the weekly Texas survey is in Amarillo, where the average price rose 5 cents to $3.58 per gallon.
The cheapest gas is in El Paso, where the price climbed 3 cents to $3.49 per gallon.
Around the state Friday, prices ranged from $3.38 a gallon at a station in Angleton to as much as $3.79 a gallon at a station in Clyde, according to Texasgasprices.com
