Assuming 25 MPG on average, and $2.50 a gallon for gas, its was less than $370 in gas...not bad either, well worth it

I'd be surprised if the GF sticks around for the next 2000+ mile year.

Most miles in one day- 740 miles. 11 hrs non stop, except for gas. From sun up to sun down I made it from here (MN) to the Oklahoma Texas boarder. If given an incentive I could be on anyones doorstep in the 48 states within 48 hrs. Scarry thought, huh?
