Are fuel prices changing your travel plans?

I am in sunny SoCal where diesel is approaching $7/gallon. For me to just get out of the state the fastest I travel east on the 10 to Blythe. That will cost me $172 just to get to the border. I know fuel is less outside California but by the summer where will it be?

We were planning on going to Colorado in August (have reservations) and then just winging it from there going north and then west and finally coming home. That little jaunt will probably cost up to $3000 just in fuel round trip.

I'm not cancelling yet but it does give me pause considering all that is going on.

Wondering if anyone else is making changes or cancelling plans?

Has anyone noticed any decreased in occupied spaces in campgrounds?

Edit: This is not to be a political thread, go somewhere else. I just want to take the temperature of fellow RVers about camping this season. Like, if people are cancelling reservations I might have a better chance of finding a camping site while on the road. Or, finding popular attractions less crowded. We all have our opinions on why the prices are going up. It's the result I'm interested in finding out about. Thanks.
