Anyone driving an extra 1000 kms, you should consider that your car is now worth a bit less, you've used up ~1/5th of an oil change, and a piece of your warranty (newer car). Maybe even allowable kms for someone on a lease. It definitely costs more than just gas.
For me, it usually would cost me at least an extra day of vacation time, which has some pretty significant value too.
