Driving my motorhome (9 mph) from upstate s.c. to Gulfport last week was still significantly cheaper than a hotel room. Gas cost me about $450. Had I driven my truck, it would have cost me about 1/2 of that at $225 but I would have had to pay for a hotel for 8 nights.
Man Jake, I've heard of conservative, but doing 9mph just to save some fuel is pushing the envelope a bit.
Does anyone actually drive less now than they did last year? I haven't changed my driving habits or how far I drive. I've cut out the amount of times I eat out with the family to accommodate for the higher cost of filling up the car, but I still don't hesitate to drive anywhere at the drop of a hat.
