I was wrong about the fuel mileage of the 2500... I didn't think anything could be worse than the fuel mileage mine got, but this one's average fuel mileage was 8 when I got into it, I then reset the average, and took it on a road test, and got it up to 14.8 by holding a feather against the go pedal. I expected the possibility of poor fuel mileage, but was more unhappy with the overall condition of the vehicle. It seems it may have hit a deer, but never was reported, or fixed. It was soiled pretty good too. I passed on it.

Justin, we enjoy it. We are about a mile from Lake Michgan and the beach. Lots of rivers and lakes around. Weather has been great compared to KS. Temperature is in the 70-85 range most days. Shorts and sandals every day.

I'm hoping we could tag along to at least camp. Jamie's birthday trip to SD and the Abilene rodeo are both in that time-frame so we have that working against us in the schedule department.
