U.S. gasoline price at record $4.11/gallon: gov't

WASHINGTON, July 7 (Reuters) - The average retail price for U.S. gasoline hit a record of $4.11 a gallon, rising 1.9 cents over last week, the government said on Monday.

The national price for regular, self-service gasoline is up $1.13 from a year ago, reflecting rising crude oil costs that reached a record above $145 a barrel last week, the federal Energy Information Administration said in its weekly survey of service stations.
