Heading to KW in February for a couple weeks. Decided to drive my 18 ft camper and stop at some parks in FL. Has anyone hauled a camper from LI to KW before? I drive a Tacoma. How much do you think this will run me in gas?

Can't answer your question but will give you a warning that you are not likely to be shown the love with open arms as you get down near the 7 mile bridge and folks can't get past you.

Do you have a reservation at an RV campground to park? Hope so because at one time parking a camper overnight on Key West was not permitted.

I tow a 30' 5th. map quest your trip you'll get the milage. research state parks near 95 to stop on the way. if you don't have reservations in the keys don't waste your time driving down there. I've towed to the grand canyon, yellow stone, up and down the blue ridge pkwy and 95. Its the best! enjoy your camper.

Thanks everyone! Yes, I reservations. Very excited as I lived there for a number of years but haven't been in 5 years. Can't wait to visit family and friends and NOT have to crash on couches. Thanks for the map quest advice! Will check it out!

Between 600 & 1000 bucks each way in gas. Depending on driving habits, traffic, etc...

mapquest has a gas calculator if you provide your city/hwy mpg. I calculated ~$189 for a car getting ~20mpg on that trip, but of course you're hauling a load and driving some local.
