Basics of the trip:
50-60 gallons of gas
550 miles round trip
1 exhaust bolt backing out causing backfires at the head of the motor
1/2 quart of oil on the 1st leg, but not from the trip itself
12 hour trip, 10:30 am tp 10:30 pm
Called sick to work
Drafting 18 wheelers netted 14 mpg highway, with a cab in back, windows down, and monster 3.9x or 4.1x rear gears, awesome.
Followed him from Grand Prairie to Huntsville ona single tank.
Next up, just a cheapie mod: Frenching the side markers
