Estimated Gas Cost: NYC to Miami Drive

Rough Estimate (2024 averages):

• Distance: ~1,300 miles (via I-95).
• Vehicle MPG: 25 mpg (mixed).
• Gallons needed: 1,300 ÷ 25 = 52 gallons.
• Gas price: ~$3.50/gal (US avg, mid-2024).
• Total fuel cost: 52 × $3.50 ≈ $182.

Variables: actual MPG (vehicle, load, AC), traffic, route deviations, price fluctuations (FL often cheaper than NY), tolls (not included). Budget $200–$250 for fuel alone.
