Before we never thought about what vehicle we were going to drive. But when gas started climbing, we stop and think about whether we are going to take the van or the little car.
Every day we keep recalculating what our fuel costs are going to be taking a 3/4 ton van pulling a trailer + taking another vehicle. If we take our van as the 2nd vehicle we are looking at 15-20mpg. If we take the little car we are looking at 35-40mpg. Sounds like an easy choice. But if we want to be pretty comfy for an 8 or 9 hour drive, hands down it's the van. If we want to get the gas mileage, then grumpy is not going to have very much head or leg room for the long drive.
