[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 486674, member: 21536"] I think you point out the best way to look at this. Because I'm frequently pulling the boat or travel trailer I use the accelerated maintenance schedule which would tend to increase the per mile cost. Using either the IRS allowance of 56 cents or your estimate of 75 cents, I'm better off driving the extra miles to the Costco. I have no idea why we have such wide variations in prices (diesel in my case). Looking at the two gaso stations nearest me, which are across the street from each other, Shell charges $5.29/gallon and Valero charges $4.85/gallon. I think there is a similar difference for regular unleaded. And yet I see folks gassing up at the Shell. Maybe They light cigars with $10 bills -- IDK. [/QUOTE]
