November was an incredibly cheap month, aside from purchasing plane tickets to go see Kathleen's cousin Anna in the Dominican Republic. We didn't drive too much and stayed well under our $10/person/day food budget.

Maintenance: We bought a spare tire at Discount Tire. Unfortunately, they did not have the right wheel, so we still need to look for one of those. We also had to replace the car battery and a fuse.

Spare Tire: $193.86
Battery and Fuse: $99.62
RV running total: $19,412.54

Service: $83.25 another oil change! We drove over 5,000 miles since Kansas City so we decided to swap oil out again in New Bern, NC.

Fuel - We're still keeping up on our Fuel log. November was a light driving month.

This month, we drove 2,443 miles on 200 gallons of gas, averaging 12.2 MPG (a bit lower than previous months)

Gas: $479.19

Propane: $9 - We only needed to get propane once this month.

Food: $443 - We did a much better job not eating out as much and when eating out, not getting drinks or sharing plates.
