San Luis Obispo County gas prices dropping, find lowest costs

December 7, 2025

By KAREN VELIE

While the national average price for a gallon of gas fell below $3, the average price for a gallon of gas in San Luis Obispo County fell eight cents last week to $4.67 a gallon, according to figures from AAA.

In California, the average price for a gallon of gas dropped nine cents to $4.47. Nationally, gas prices fell five cents to $2.90 a gallon.

“The last time the national average reached an even $3.00 or below was in May of 2021,” according to AAA. “Crude oil prices remain on the lower side around $60 a barrel. Sluggish gas demand and cheaper-to-produce winter blend gasoline are also contributing to the drop at the pump.”

SLO County currently has the ninth highest price for gas in the state. Listing the highest average price, Mono County’s price for a gallon of regular gasoline this week is $5.67. Amador County boasts the lowest average cost at $4.02 a gallon.

Now now, Don’t you all be frettin’ about those low prices. The automatic tax increase will kick it up in January!


We already pay over $1.25 per gallon, in fees taxes, and regulatory requirements. By 2035, we’re looking at nearly $1.50 JUST on the Low Carbon Fuel Standard requirement alone. The LCFS is the legal push to force the state into electric vehicles, which create more carbon and toxins just to make, than they can save.


If you voted democrat, you endorsed this.

What will you do with all the money you’re saving?

Don’t get too excited, though. Federal regulations often allow for higher ethanol blends in winter. Higher ethanol content leads to lower gas mileage.
