$150 should do it in less the price of gas increases, which it seems to be doing by the hour.

your looking at $145 with those figures but gas prices do vary. Are you going to be driving around while your there. If you take $200 for gas that's an extra 500 miles with your figures and gives you some cushion just in case.

take 1310 and devide it by the 27 miles per gal. that you get, then multiply that answer by the price of gase at the time you are leaving from your starting point and add $10 for oil and you should have just about the right amount to carry you over. about $900 should be a ball park figure.

you will be traveling 1,310 miles divide that by the 27mpg and get the number of gallons you need 48.5. you then multiply the price of a gallon(2.99) by how many gallons you need(48.5) and find $145.07
you should deffinately take a little more money though because of all the variables such as price and your vehicles mpg on highway or in city areas etc.
and safe trip = )
