Depends upon the vehicle size, engine and the manner in which it's driven.

The trip itself is about 760 miles. If the car gets an average of 25 mph, then divide that into 760 which equals 30.4 gallons. If the car gets less mpg, it will take more fuel to travel the same distance ... conversely if the car gets more mpg, then it will take less fuel. Simply take your total miles and divide it by your mpg to get estimated gallons used.
