Last week I was on vacation and took my first long road trip in my truck. I went out west put 4,700 miles on it in one week. The truck ran well even in the mountains it kept the speed up droping out of overdrive just a few times but most of the time it stayed in overdrive and kept the speed up.

I got 17 mpg in the mountains and 19 mpg the rest of the time cruising at speeds from 70 mph to 75 mph. Places I went to are the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, a couple of old Forts in Kansas, Arches National park and a few other places along the way.
