Michigan gas prices surge 33 cents to highest point since 2023, AAA saysGas prices in Michigan exploded 33 cents a gallon in the past week to hit their highest point in two and a half years, according to AAA-The Auto Club Group.
The average price of $3.92 a gallon is the highest since August 2023, but a little lower than the national pump price of $3.96, according to AAA.
It is $1.07 more than a month ago and 74 cents higher than the same time in 2025, officials said.
Motorists in the state are paying an average of $59 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline, AAA reported.

Gas prices at the pump here shot up 30% in one day after Trump bombed Iran and the price of oil jumped.
I reckon they will lower prices just as fast, right?
Gas price in the last month here has gone from $2.79 per gallon to $3.99 per gallon.
The usual suspects are getting rich by ripping us off, and the President and his family and cronies are leading the way.
