GasBuddy says U.S. gasoline demand last week surged to a new 2021 high, besting the week prior to the 4th of July holiday. This shows that motorists aren't slowing their appetite for hitting the road just yet, and that could further boost prices should demand remain hot. For you, BasBuddy says motorists should enjoy a brief respite at the pump and buckle up for what might be a bumpy finish to summer.
