2013/07/14 – Sunday – 2013 Vacation - Stats and Summary

Here are some stats and summary of the May Family 2013 Big Vacation.

Miles driven in the RV = 3,642
Average RV Miles Driven per day = 260
Miles Driven in the Van = 1,270
Average Van Miles Driven per day = 71
Average Miles Per Gallon for the RV = 7.0
Average Price Per Gallon = $3.619
Number of Gallons for the RV = 522.105

So we did get better gas mileage for the RV using the tow dolly instead of the car trailer.  So after ten years of having the RV, our average MPG is 6.453.

We visited 6 national parks / national monuments.

Something we did differently this years was to go to a place and spend a least two nights at the location.  In years past we would visit a park as we pass through.  So this year a different and more relaxing.

And lets not forget about fixing tires on this trip.  We had to buy two tires for the Van and a new tire for the RV.

I sure hope others go out and enjoy your vacation and visit our great nation!
