According to Yahoo maps and driving directions, it is 1130.9 miles from Dallas, Tx. to Orlando, Florida. I am going to round that off to 1130 and add 20 miles..
I am going to estimate 15 m.p.g.1130/20 = 76.6
I am going to round that off to 60 and set gas price at $2.50 although gas is cheaper than that now.
76.6* 2.5 =191.6 so $191.60 ONE WAY
What do you plan to do if you have a flat tire, or other malfunction on the way?
Are you going alone? You can get roundtrip promotional fares on Southwest Airlines for $89 - $129 one way. From DAL to MCO lowest rate would be $206 including taxes and fees.

7-day advanced purchase roundtrip ticket on Greyhound bus is $188. You can get a student discount if you qualify.

take a second mortgage on your house. Just kidding.
Try to calculate the mileage between Tx and Fla and then figure out what mileage your van does by the gallon and multiply the amount of gallons per mileage between point A and point B and this should give you a ballpark figure
Have a nice trip

Let's see:
Mileage from Dallas to Orlando is 1,140 Miles (rounded).
Your vehicle gets: 14.2 MPG
Gas Tank capacity: 30 gallons
You typically get around 430 miles per tank of gas.
1142 divided by 14.2 = 3.5
So I will round to 4 times to fill the tank.
- one tank costs on average of $2.47 x 30 = $74.10/tank
- $74.10 x 4 (fill ups) = $296.40 (rough estimate)
Does not include snacks, tolls etc.
Also the drive takes an estimated 16 hours 51 minutes to drive from Dallas to Orlando non-stop.

Figure out your mpg, then miles to Orlando from Dallas, price per gallon, and there you go. Add more for A/C or hauling a trailer.
I drove from Austin to LA, getting 30 mpg, last summer, and spent about $200 in gas. 1400 miles.

If you have to ask the price, (believe me)...
You can not afford it.
Take the BUS.
