Road Trip!!
In less than 6 hours I being my pilgrimage down south. You may have Tan Terror sightings in Ohio, Kentucky, Tennesse, and other states I'll be driving through... plan is to invade Louisville tonight, and onto Baton Rouge in the morning.
The trip should be roughly 1100 miles one-way and consume 16-18 hours of driving. I'm looking foward to getting this truck on the open road, setting the cruise and taking a nap... er, taking in the scenery.
I'll be checking in with you punks tomorrow night with all the stats... I've also got to get some pix upload of the new laptop mount (hella cool). Highly recommended for you guys with the 40/20/40 bench!
Talley-Ho!

Truck road like a dream! 17mpg overall milage for the trip. Not bad considering the cruise was locked on 75-ish the entire trip, even through the mountains.. lowest we got was 16.5 (at half tank) but recovered back to 17mpg on the second half.
And unfortunately the Tan Terror suffered it's first dent. Rear bumper had an encounter with a boulder in the parking lot of our hotel last night. I didn't know it was there, and it let me know. Just a dent, big enough to see at a distance.. disaster! I'll have to try and bump it out... not bad, 18,000 miles later it gets its first official beauty mark!
Adios muchochos!
