A Typical Scenario
I've been tracking my driving costs for years, and the Cost Per Mile Tool has been a real lifesaver. Just the other day, I was planning a road trip from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and I used the tool to estimate my expenses. Based on my car's fuel efficiency and the current gas prices in my area, the tool calculated that I'd be spending around $50 on gas for the 400-mile round trip.
How It Works in Practice
When you use the Cost Per Mile Tool, it also factored in my car's maintenance costs, insurance, and other variable expenses, giving me a total estimated cost of $80 for the journey. That really helped me budget for the trip and avoid any unpleasant surprises.
