Should run like a champ. Remember, sunflower seeds are the VERY best way to stay awake when behind the wheel. All those little motor movements trying to shuck them with your teeth makes it impossible to fall asleep while eating them. Have a safe trip!

Trip was good. BUT I didnt eat any sunflower seeds. I'm a energy drink Junkie! Ha. I didnt get quiet the gas milage I thought. But It wasnt far off. I was expecting to get around 16/17mpg. I got right at 15. But it wasnt city nor highway. It was a combo of both. I was changing Back and forth from Interstate to 2 Lane highways to red lights in cities. blah blah blah. Oh and the steep hills probally drug it down to. Haha. I will tell you one thing though. I wasnt expecting my truck to be a good road trip vehicle due to the fact that it is just a extended cab truck. Not that much room. But Just for me alone. It was great. Normally my back hurts if I drive extended periods of time. Not this time. I felt great when I got out of it and started unpacking. Anyway. Like I said before I left. Its a Ford. It done awesome!! I cant wait for my summer vacation to come around..

I found my Screw to be very comfortable too. I have the same low back issues and it has the adjustable lumbar which is nice. Mostly it just rides well and the upright posture keeps my back from hurting. Now with my cruise control fixed it is even better cause I can move my feet around.
Remember the seeds trick - there will come a time the energy drinks won't be enough and the seeds are a sure thing!
