Cheaper to drive if you have a reliable car and time. Leaving here at 7am you can easily be in Vancouver by 4pm their time. Starting in the morning allows you to make the trip without having to grab a hotel and you hit the mountain passes in daylight. Starting with a full tank of gas you will probably gas up two or three times to get there and back (depending on how much you drive when you are there and how efficient your vehicle is). The only wild card is possible winter weather in the passes.
