Gas Savings Calculator

As gas prices rise, many people are using various web sites, and local news information, to find the cheapest price for gasoline per gallon in their area. Some people are driving several miles out of their way to save a few pennies per gallon. Use the calculator below to calculate how much money you will actually save by driving off your regular driving route to visit a gas station that is further away.

Average Miles per Gallon for Your Vehicle
Gallons of Gas Needed
Best Price En-Route The best price for gasoline at a station that you normally drive by.
Best Price Off-Route The best price for gasoline that you are considering driving to buy.
Distance to Best Price The distance (in miles) off your regular route that you will have to drive (one way) to get to the station with the cheaper gas.
