Default Re: Going to Las Vegas on Fri Nov 2

To each his own. I figure 2200 miles roundtrip divided by 20 mpg = 110 gals. x $3 = $330 gas.

Standard wear and tear, depreciation and maintainence on a car is something you have to factor. This amount varies,
The IRS allows 48.5 cents per mile when using your car for business. I think a bare min.would be 20 cents, so that would be $440 + $330 gas = $770 expense + 35 hours driving.

But I have a friend from Chicago, who lives here in Vegas and dose'nt like to fly. He regularly loads up the family and drives to San diego and San fran to see the Cubs, and to Chicago to visit family.

So either way, Have a great trip.
