well in 2 weeks i might be going down to North Carolina. its about a 490 mile trip (one way). i did my own calculations on gas and such and came up with about $40 in gas to get down there at $3 per gallon. but my question is what do you guys all spend on your trips? gas wise. cause i know whats in a calculator is rarely what it is in real life.

 

I drove 170 miles at 55 mph and got 40 mpg usually it took me half a tank at 60 but i tryed 55 the whole way and it took a quarter tank. SOHC ATX. Try it!

 

last trip i went on was down to st louis.....i think it was only about 360 miles round trip.....cost me about $10 to get home (180 miles) but it cost about $140 to make the round trip in my durango[&:]
otherwise i havent been on a trip in about 4 years...
back then i went to carlisle PA....i think it was about 800 miles...took me $70 to get there at about 100-115 miles per hour the whole way

 

273 miles, $30, between 65-95

 

Just got back from France and the fuel cost was insane..

 

I just recently went to my brothers wedding in Erie,PA from Hampton,VA which was about 600 miles i had stopped on the PA turnpike and topped off from a just a about a quarter from E at about 40.00 made it there with just over a half of tank then we drove to canada to visit the famous niagara falls and from there back home to VA in all i spent about close to 100.00 in total fuel cost with no tickets thanks to my new passport 9500i it was pricey but hey im in a state where a speed trap can set you back SOMEBODY WILL PAY 3,000.00 IM JUST MAKING SURE ITS NOT ME!
Virginia to issue traffic fines as high as $3,000
By Dennis Cauchon, USA Today

"Virginia is for lovers, or so the state slogan has declared since 1969. Starting Sunday [July 1, 2007], Virginia also will be the home of the $3,000 traffic ticket."

Virginia's new $3.550 speeding ticket
By MSN money staff and wires

"Traffic offenders face whopping additional fees that live on long after they've paid their fines. It's part of a growing 'driver responsibility' trend that targets chronic offenders."

 

radar detectors are illegal in VA, 15mph over is weckless driving and maybe jail time depending on the judge.

crazy cops
