DaddyBuiltRacing Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 I am planning several weekend racing trips as well as a trip for me and my wife. I have used Mapquest's fuel calculator and it seems about as accurate as their directions, not very! It claims that a trip to Alabama in a truck getting 20mpg wll cost us $114 1 way, that seems awfully low to me. Anyone ever use a fuel cost calculator, if so which one and was it actually accurate? AAA has one but it sucks, only allows you to search major cities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifford Automotive Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Milage of trip (/) average fuel economy (x) inflated fuel cost. I estimated 600 to drive to Florida and back. Cost me about 550. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJ Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Columbus to Birmingham 571 miles 20 mpg $3.78 gas price average (571/20) * 3.78= 107.92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Hmm maybe it is accurate which is a good thing as there is usually 4-5 of us splitting the cost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
