New York → Pennsylvania · Interstate 90 / Interstate 390
Before turning the key for Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on the homeward run from Rochester, New York, do a quick inventory sweep of onboard equipment: proposal binder, undelivered promotional items, and visitor badge should each go into a separate compartment so nothing slides into the footwell during a sharp brake. Interstate 90 / Interstate 390 accepts the 484 km (301 miles) of the return in roughly 4h 37m. Pulling out of Rochester (the Genesee Valley city and historic Eastman Kodak headquarters), the road eventually puts the driver back in front of the urban skyline of Philadelphia (the birthplace of American independence and sixth-largest US city). Refueling sits near $40.48 for the same 44 liters (11.6 gallons) at the EIA national average benchmark. Return reimbursement, calculated against $0.43/km, returns $208.12 into the driver's wallet. Snap the closing odometer with the phone camera and attach it directly to the Clara receipt — internal controls accept photographic evidence without a supplementary spreadsheet.
