Whats your budget?

[JohnX]

Including all expenses (except Jeep upgrades) what is your total expected expenditures for the trip. Include Gas, Food, Lodging, Sightseeing, Shopping, Raffle tickets, etc. BUT NOT that new locker or winch.


Mine...

I figure roughly $1500

$500 for fuel (Tow rig and XJ).
$300 for Food.
$250 for Camping.
$150 for booze.
$300 for Raffles, sights, shopping, etc.

Staying with In-Law = 0

I am really liking the falling gas prices right now and hope that it keeps happening through October. Not counting on it though.

 

[cj matt]

Active duty military + Pack Creek Campground = free stay My biggest expense will be gas and food/beer.

Thats the way I did the 20th.

This time gas at $4.15 per gallon will be $1,100, the condo is $1,500, food probably $1K, 2 nights hotel on the road $250...it's only money and I can't take it with me.


Oh


The winning raffle ticket $3 :sunshine:

Oh, I think that's called "Opie Economics".

I can't bring myself to go that route. :tear:

well, my biggest expense will be the hotel room anyways....fuel cost won't be an issue for once

the main reason I many need to resort to using the credit card for this trip, is I will just be getting home from a trip back to IL for my sister's wedding and to pickup some more of my stuff (my other XJ...).....I'm not looking forward to the fuel costs on that trip...even though prices have come down a bit...

Ah, yeah I forgot you were getting the Jeep.

 

[XJumpmaster]

Trying to keep it under $800 but it depends on how much fuel in Utah will actually come down by then. We're still at the $4 mark.

 

[WayneXJ]

Probably around 300-400 for the trip.

 

[Goatman]

Fuel and gas $1000
Camping $250
Food $250
Misc $200-400

So $1700-1900 and well worth it.

 

[grande]

Gas $300
Camping $Free!!!! yay active duty
