What is your fuel expense to JV?

[JR]

It's going to be high this year.
Last year it was $110 round trip for the toe rig and $80 for the rig.

I figure if we bitch about it now, it won't be so bad when we have to fill up!

[Beat95YJ]

About $200 roundtrip. Taking the scenic route over t-day though.

[Pook]

$1100 roundtrip in the old gas pig towing last year.

With the new diesel I'm hoping $6-700

Wish I lived closer...

anyone have work for a fabricator, blacksmith or industrial electrician.

[jefe]

If I come down I-5 or 99 (and not 395) through Bakerspatch, Tejon, Gorman on to Hwy 38, I figure its $750 round trip. OO-EE that hurts. It was a lot cheaper when I lived in So Cal, not No Cal.
regards, as always, JR (the elder)

[glenns89]

for me it is about $60 for the tow rig. but I fill up for about $100 and I always fillup before going. when I bring the Jimmy out I spend about $100 for the weekend on just that. Not too bad.I am only 100 miles from the hammers.

[megatoy66]

I left yesterday from Tacoma, Wa. picked up a jeep cherokee, hauled it to Las Vegas for a customer, it paid $$$$$. Going to pick up my buggy in Fresno tommorow, going to the hammers til' sunday then hauling a hendrix chassis north strapped to my buggy, it pays $$$.
My fuel, rooms, food and entire trip is paid for and then some.

[jpfrk2001]

coming from barstow will cost me $50 for round trip. thats my tow rig and my jeep for the time out there

[Dusty]

Ten bucks if I leave from work :flipoff2:

Have fun out there guys. I was gonna go up to Panamint for T-day but other issues have me staying home this year.

Live in Ventura County I figure $150.00 dollars in Gasolina round trip but the visit to Costco for all the extra STUFF $350.00 but to be with family and fellow 4 wheelers PRICELESS

[Scott@Rockstomper]

Close to $1k in diesel, and $150ish in gas if I get to play as much as I'd like after spending that much getting there.

[Jes]

$300 diesel.
$75 Gas.

[Mustard Dog]

$15 diesel
$80 propane

[Scott@Rockstomper]

Just occurred to me... I spent less $$ in 2-1/2 weeks in Europe, including roundtrip airfare for two, a few years back, than I did in four trips to the west coast last year. :eek:

Don't tell my wife. :laughing:

[RE:Todd]

55 gallons of diesel and 20 gallons of gas

[rsqne1]

$100 in Diesel (Roundtrip) and abot $30 in Gas...I just don't look at the pump anymore!!!

[socalchef]

I guess I don't have it so bad, about $75 in diesel and maybe $30-40 in gas. Just starting to use propane so not sure of my expense on that yet. It's a fuel, right?

[Mustard Dog]

Cost me about 80 to fill my three tanks, I'll go through 2 1/2 of them in a good weekend.

[Air Ride]

$200 in the tow rig
$50 of 110 in the buggy mixed with $50 of 91.

[minam44]

$180 in the tow rig
$60 in propane, next trip will be less, only used a little over one 10 gal tank last time:smokin:

[RUFF]

15Hr Airflieght from Brisbane Australia to Las Vegas Nevada= $2500
RV Hire for 7 days= $500+
Fuel For RV= $200+
Sitting in the passenger seat of Tim Florians old X Chassie Buggy for less than 5 min of being at the hammers and him flipping it onto its roof on Back Door= PRICELESS :D :smokin:

[GETTINTHERETOY]

About $320 in Diesel, $30 bucks in gas. Roundtrip.

[adampfisters]

About $300 in Diesel and anywhere from $1 to $60 in gas (depending on if/when I break to the point that it goes back on the trailer) 450 miles each way

[socalchef]

Cost me about 80 to fill my three tanks, I'll go through 2 1/2 of them in a good weekend.

Mine is just for camp fuel, though I was eyeballin' the forklift at work since I've got my rig parked here for the week....The fork is gettin' kinda old and we could really use a standup replacement :)

[ABQ-TJ]

I just returned. 1460-ish miles round trip. Counting filling up here at home, I put 6 full tanks in the Chevy...at about an average of $65-$70 per tank = a little over $400.

Oh, there's a station west of Twenty Nine Palms that had diesel at $3.79, the highest I saw (I passed on it, btw!).

[Goatman]

About $120 in diesel and $60-75 gas depending on how much we run.

Like some others, I never think about it. It's WAY cheaper than a weekend at the coast with my wife. :D

[chvyhs]

I use about $75 in Diesel and $40 in Propane. That's counting the propane in the camper. When I retire I'm planning on moving out to the 5 acre lot I bought in Lucerne Valley. It's about half an hour from the lake bed!

[Pook]

I wanted to buy the lot on the dirt road in to the lakebed that was for sale last spring :)

That'd be kick ass... make it a campground with showers and cabins for rent.

[jopes]

$300 ish in the tow rig
$100 ish in the wheeler

[darnplumber]

Now that I moved farther away $25


lucky bastard :flipoff2:

When I was there a month ago it was still FS. I think thats a pretty good idea.
I spend about 600$ round trip on diesel and gas. :shaking: Sucks but its not going to keep me from coming down a couple times a year!

[elusiv]

$80 in the tow rig if I don't bring the RV, $200 if I do, $45 in the Jeep.

[Roc Doc]

$150 in diesel
$30 in mid-grade gas.
