What a great trip we had. My GPS clocked 2665 miles. I bought $461.50 of high test, 158.3 gallons @ $2.91 average. I got a wonderful 16MPG. Tiny little engine but all those carbs do like the taste. Lost an alternator but since its just a 65a, 1967 model it cost me only $46 and has a lifetime warranty from Auto Zone. Our run in with a sleet storm in Tahoe was not pleasant but otherwise, I totally enjoyed the 11 days and am looking forward to doing another long road trip next year. This weekend's little 600+-mile jaunt up the Coronado trail, now sounds like a pretty minor cruise. Going to try real hard to keep off the sides of the mountains.
