I guess I could take the food part out since 80% of our meals will be like eating at home. I am spending a bit more on fuel because my vehicle is an 06 Chev Silverado.
So I'm sure the budget police will be happy to tell me I'd save money and get my vacation price down if I replaced it with a Tesla or a Hyundai Electric vehicle that only requires 70 grand up front plus another 3 to add an electric charge port to my house, than let's spend 35k to add a solar system...so in 15 years I can pay off all those loans and need to replace it all again as these will be obsolete and useless.

Holy crap! We camp for most of our vacations, but sites are at most, $33 a night. I guess I should be grateful for well-funded state parks here? (Oregon). 31 nights over the summer and the total for our sites is roughly $800.
