How much $$ in gasoline will you spend for the Summit?



I'm looking at around $1100 If gas prices are a little higher than they are right now. thats round trip,

home--->ouray--->moab--->rausch creek (PA)--->home


the rausch creek thing only adds about an hour travel time and 30 bucks to the total trip. My local club is having toyota takeover the weekend I return


Maybe we can get Shell or Exxon to sponsor the event

Last year we won a $100 gift card in the raffle and used it towards gas. Maybe you will get lucky and win one this year.

Any were between $600 to $700 depending on how much I go through on the trails. I was figuring $4 a gallon in my math.

From VA round trip probably around $1100 to $1400 depending on how much I use on the trails.

Re: How much $$ in gasoline will you spend for the Summit?

'bout a hundred dollars, ya. Said in my best Rainman voice, sometimes called the Rainmechanic at work, ya.

Actually more like $75. Gas mileage will be down a bit from last year. Sporting a lift and will be towing a trailer to the Summit. I feel for you guys coming in from far away. Spent my gas money last year on a trip to Key West. Ya when the company had an opening here I jumped on it to be close to the mountains. I used to take vacation just to wheel around Ouray, now it's in my back yard. Love it!
