Default Per Mile Cost

Watching CBS this morning. They drove a hybrid and a focus halfway across the country and met in the middle.
The Focus cost .16 per mile the Prius was around .10 per mile. They said the camera crews (in what I think was an Expedition) did around .30 a mile.
Have you ever figured yours?
I guess pulling my LQ mine would be around .45 right now so on a 500 mile round trip that would be $225.
With my open trailer it drops to .37. Same trip would cost $185. Thats only a $40 difference maybe I should keep it.

What I'm getting at is Where do you draw the line. If Diesel reaches $6 a gallon. 500 mile trip now cost $300. I'll still go.

What is yours?
Where do you draw the line and say enough is enough.
