It's bound to eat up at least some of the difference, but it will all depend on 
what happens to gas and motel prices in the coming year. It's possible that gas 
prices will soar, which will reduce the number of travelers on the road. This 
might actually drive the cost of motel rooms down, at least temporarily.
