How much do you think it cost to drive from Santa Fe to Seattle?
evil_paul asked:
I need to drive from Santa Fe, NM to Seattle. I will be driving either a 96VW Beetle, or a 96 Dodge Dakota Quad cab. Both vehicles are in excellent mechanical condition.

1534 miles each way, 3068 miles total, divided by the miles per gal of the vehicle driven yielding gallons of fuel used. If the vehicle gets 30 MPG highway, 3068 / 30 = 103 gals. Now times the cost of fuel maybe 3.50 per gal. so, 103 x 3.50 costs $360.50 in fuel. Food cost, depends…Plus lodging unless you are sleeping in your car. Flying him might be cheaper?
