At the same time we went to Carlisle, PA in the Yellow Peril. Only thing comparable
was John Holtzapple's covered bridge tour around Lancaster, PA. MUCH like a rally!
Almost 2800 miles, never opened the tool box. Did have to change to "Super" gas starting
in West Virginia and back to Tennessee. Not sure why as the mid-grade was advertised at
the same octane as here (where it NEVER pings).
Got an average of 24.97 mpg with some tanks as high as 27.7. These are corrected for
a 7% increase in tire circumference, so that an indicated 70 was really 74.9.
Total distance was 2784 miles. NO electrical problems.
