if i drive to norman oklahoma from atlanta whats the ballpark price i would spend on gas down and back. just a rough estimate. its around 890 miles just there so a combined of around 1780. just want what others think it is before i decide on making the drive.
and i have a 96 miata 10 gallon tank. 19$ fills her up =)

Ok, assuming you get a horrible 25mpg, you'd need 71.2 gallons of gas to complete the trip. Assuming an average of $2.00/gallon if you use regular, you'd spend $142.40.

thats around what i was getting so 200.00 in gas money should be plenty. i might be making a sneak trip there thanksgiving break.

Yeah, you should be fine assuming gas doesn't hike.
I lived in Tulsa for a year, and I hope I never have to go back. :lol:

my brother had to drive in his Z71 silverado from Warner Robins to Iowa. Spent like $400-500 in gas and that was one way.
