Well hopefully things will go smoothly. Lynda and I took a trip out west 2 years but that was in the Malibu. We had a pretty fixed schedule since she made hotel reservations at all our stops. That trip was around 5,000 miles and I pushed that little car pretty hard. Close to 90mph on the freeways with an 80mph limit. AC on almost all of the time, passing motorhomes and semi's climbing the mountains. The car shows average fuel economy, when we pulled into driveway it showed 30.2 mpg for the entire trip. Not too bad for a V6 and the way I drive. I'll probably get about 1/4 of that in the motorhome driving a lot slower and less aggressively.
Changed the oil in the beast yesterday, put on a 2qt WIX filter. I want to change one front brake caliper, then air up the tires, pack and we're ready to go.
