With the trip behind us, Sonny actually saved EVERY gas receipt (I lost a couple along the way), and here's some of the stats:

We all used regular fuel. Sonny traveled 3626 miles, consumed 236 gallons at a cost of $750.10. The average price per gallon was $3.17, and he averaged 15.3 MPG.

I drove 4017 miles, and every time we stopped to fill up, I used about a gallon and a half more than Sonny, averaging about 13.7 MPG. Packard Bill and Cecil used about a gallon and a half less than Sonny on each fill up, and their average was probably in the 17-18 MPG range.

We stayed in Choice Hotels...usually a Comfort Inn. The nicest room was proably the night we spent at the Sleep Inn in Memphis. The worst were the EconoLodge's...both were pathetic, and we've scratched them off the list of any future trips we'll be taking.

We ate well, thanks to Packard Bill basically refusing to eat an junk food this year. Our best meal was Sims BBQ. This year, there really wasn't anything that qualifies as a bad meal, except for the BBQ at Memphis Motorsports Park that was way overrated.

It was almost impossible, with a total of three GPS, to get lost, although we did manage a wrong turn or two. A couple years ago, we pretty much stayed lost!

After five consecutive years of doing the Tour, Sonny, Cecil, Kevin and I have decided to attend the All Ford Show at Carlisle next year. Packard Bill will no doubt do the Tour again (Little Rock to Madison in 2008), as he has done since 1998.
