For some of us Bingo the cost of fuel and the amount we spend on fuel is very important and does enter into our travel plans, since we have found that this cost will equal almost half of our total trip cost. Guess my pension just is not up to snuff....

Didn't meant to place anyone in a category, Ed, and at some point in time, MPG and range will be a factor for me as well. My pension plan does not exist at present, since I am still five days a week for 48 weeks a year. The other four weeks are our travel time, and as long as we have the means to travel, we will travel, that was the underlying gist of what I was saying. I do estimate fuel budget costs at a conservative 10 MPG, and prefer to leave it that way, since then what we have budgeted for fuel for our trips always has a cushion.
