A general rule of thumb for gasoline: For every $1 in the price of a barrel of crude oil, gasoline’s price at the pump will be about 4 cents a gallon. So if crude oil’s price is $70 per barrel, gasoline will be about $2.80 per gallon at the pump. To continue this line of thinking:
- A crude oil price of $25/barrel would be about $1/gallon gasoline price at the pump.
- A crude oil price of $50/barrel would be about $2/gallon gasoline price at the pump.
- A crude oil price of $75/barrel would be about $3/gallon gasoline price at the pump.
A general rule of thumb for diesel: The price of diesel fuel per gallon will be about 25 percent higher than the price of regular unleaded gasoline per gallon at the pump. So if regular unleaded gasoline is $3.00 per gallon, diesel fuel will be about $3.75 per gallon at the pump.
