We called it a season last weekend (finished winterizing yesterday). We had a very enjoyable season. This is a breakdown of our basic costs for the season:
Total Miles: 6560
Cost of gas: $2,123 (this years average was 8.0 mpg as usual
and the average cost per gallon was $2.59
RV park cost:$1785 (51 nights at average $35 per night)
Total basic cost(Gas and camps only)$3908 or $105 per day
Not included: food, occasional t shirt, supplies, or whatever.
This falls in line with our last 4 years since we started this wonderful hobby. Making plans right now for another 10 week cross country trip next summer. Laying out our back road route and began to set cash aside for this run already. The wife and I truly enjoy the road less traveled.
Oh,we have a smaller class C. Thor Freedom Elite 22e E350 Triton V10 and there are just 2 of us.
