17. "Summer Driving Season"

The summer months are the real cash season in terms of gasoline sales, since travelling by car for vacations is (in theory) cheaper and less of a hassle than flying on a plane. It's very common (even back during the $0.90/gallon days) for prices to inch up before the summer months to capitalize on the vaction season. They spike up very high in spring, settle back down, and then inch up high again so it doesn't seem unprescedented.
