Road-trip planner

With many of us on euro-watch asking, "How low can the dollar go?" I found

www.RoadTripAmerica.com

, a Web site that helps you plan a trip closer to home. So fuel up the Prius.

What's hot:

It's thick with resources, tips and stories. It has a fuel calculator to budget your gasoline expenses. It reviews audio books to keep you occupied when you get tired of your iPod playlist.

What's not:

I found the narratives too long to keep my mind focused, but the site will keep you occupied a good long time.
