Gasoline prices start year at $3.28 per gallon

Gasoline prices started 2012 with the all-time high of $3.28 per gallon, reported AAA Daily Fuel Gauge. Analysts expect the commodity to be extremely volatile this year. The record high price will negatively impact customers as gasoline price tends to peak later, usually between April and July, said Tom Kloza, economist from Oil Price Information Service.
