Thanks Jedi!

If a few ppl coughed up $20-40 each...AND somebody gave me a couch to sleep on...I'd make sure they got at least a couple print-quality/worthy shots.

Example:

Select Departing Flight
Seattle/Tacoma, WA to Los Angeles, CA (Saturday, July 21 2007)

Discount
Fares
$165

:D

You gotta bring your car!

Tacoma to Los Angeles is about 1100 miles.

Let's say you average 20 mpg.

1100 / 20 = 55 gallons

Let's say gas is $3/gallon

55 * 3 = 165

$165 to drive

See, it makes more sense to drive because your car can also be in the photo shoot.

20mg? HA!

Round Trip = ~ $360-400 in fuel...plus food...plus time off work... :D


Vs. ~ $350 r/t and a no time off work, to fly.

:D

I have - once - with the old engine. Since my new engine, I've never shown an average of more than 17.89mpg combined. :-/
