OT: Fuel Calculator

Postby Rick » Fri May 30, 2008 10:02 am

This calculator will tell you the fuel cost for a road trip. Pretty cool, although the gas mileage it uses seems to be based on what the manufacturer reported. That's always on the generous side.

From the link: "Calculate The Estimated Fuel Cost Of Your Trip"

I think the folks at AAA need to take another look at those guidelines for capitalization in titles.

We actually have a small RV. IF we take it out of storage at all this year, we'll be going places within a couple of hours away.
