Expenses
On this page I will try to give you some expense
data. Besides the fixed expenses there are expenses for gas, camping/overnite
fees and food. I have not included gas for the TOAD as it uses the
same amount of gas on a trip as it does at home. Food is a "choice"
expense. We eat at home about the same as on the road. This
may vary if you eat out a lot. I also did not include miscelleanous
expenses. That will vary depending on your life style and purpose
of the trip. If you stay in a Campground for fishing the expenses
should be low. If you stay at an RV Park & visit Disneyland,
& other tourist attractions, the expenses will be high. Souvenouirs
Etc also run the cost up.
