I would love to, But I will be some where between SoCal, Idaho,Oregon, Nevada or Eastern Washington.
Not sure what route I will be taking home YET. I'll know when I hit the I-5 & I-80 crossing point.
I guess the question is do I want to do some gambling of drive in the muck up around Northern Calf. I'll let you all know.

Well.....
I am back home.
I don't know what the he!! I did coming down Grant's Pass
But 31.93 MPG ? I did not forget a fill up and the miles agreed
with the trip Od and the APP on my phone. But I sure would like that
to happen more. It's not really that far out for all that down hill.
The injectors shut off for the most part when you coast like I was.
Best price on diesel was $4.119 gal worst $4.399 gal.
The funny thing is both prices were in California
My worst mileage was 7.5 MPG and going up Grapevine hill only got 12.71 MPG

Evening, been pretty quiet around here eh? I got my work cut out for me, i get to replace my front brake discs along with bearings and all that good stuff... I did my front pads recently and now have 2 broken studs instead of 1 like when i bought TGM. I figure 3 isn't enough to hold a 35 on very long so i get to tear into it tomorrow and replace everything...

Thanks for asking! Actually i am done. IT was a pain to do but i am glad i did it cause i learned a lot about my hubs. As for the quality of braking... It's about the same as before. It stops a little quicker but the pedal still almost goes to the floor. Oh well.
