We have a little over two years until we retire and start extensive traveling. Our longest trip this year is 214 miles one way. Most of our weekends are less than an hour one way. Fuel prices won't stop us from any of those trips.
The last time prices went way up we were looking at taking two families/towing two campers to Pigeon Forge. When we looked at fuel usage for the two vehicles towing we decided to look a combo deals Dolly was offering for her rental properties. It was cheaper for us to get a 4 bedroom condo and it provided us with unlimited entry into Dollywood for the whole week. We still made the trip, had more fun due to getting into the park free and saved some money. Sometimes you just have to roll with the situation.
