I think we all need to get out from under the chassis and start enjoying the beautiful coach above :!:

Hear, hear bcope01. In the planning stage for just that. Will be departing for somewhere shortly :lol:

BTW, over Easter drove from Tampa, FL to Dothan, AL and return, some 800 miles. Driving up at 65+mph we averaged 9.01 mpg. Returned at a steady 60 mph and mileage increased to 10.41. The GPS indicated that the difference in the average trip speed each way was only about 3 mph.

Nori & Jake:

Wow! That's a 15.5% increase in mpg. Just goes to show you what "smart" driving will do. And you arrived only 3 minutes later on every 60 mile segment. Not bad.

PS. I'll bet you saw more of the countryside at 60 mph too.
