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.

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.
