If you are ready to share costs with a driver or other riders, we will help you evenly distribute the costs. Otherwise, just ignore this area to only calculate the costs of your commute.

1The default value, based on your vehicle type selection, is derived from AAA Your Driving Costs 2007. We subtracted the estimated fuel costs from AAA's cost per mile for vehicles driven 15,000 miles per year to derive this number, which is intended to estimate all of the other operating costs for a vehicle of the selected type (including maintenance, tires, insurance, licenses and fees, depreciation and financing).
2The default value, if available, is derived from AAA Daily Fuel Gauge Report for Traverse City. It is updated on a daily basis.
