Looking at a map I'm guessing that you're going to be travelling about 400 miles round trip. If your vehicle gets 20mpg, you'll need 20 gallons of gas. At $3.50 a gallon that's $70 per trip in gas, or ten trips for $700. Add a license and if you're like me there will probably be a stop for fast food at least half the trips, the expenses can easily top $1000. If you're worried about the $225, make sure that you can afford the total cost.
