How this estimate works
Fuel is your distance divided by your vehicle's MPG, multiplied by the price per gallon — doubled if you mark the trip round-trip. Lodging multiplies your nightly budget by the number of nights, and food uses a daily per-person figure across your days on the road. It's a planning sanity-check, not a quote: real prices vary by season, route, and demand, so confirm live pricing before you book. Planning a longer drive? Start with the Route 66 leg guides for real overnight stops, or size the whole trip with the Trip Budget Calculator.
