    So listen to NOR today in the truck. Heard this report on bear safety.

    Top choice deteraints are bear spray and flares! Ha

    Also mention these for tent campers. Say they work amazing at keeping the bears away. Nothing like a 6,000 volt shock ha

    Yea too little. I spent 600ish on gas for Moab..that was like 1800 miles for me I think or more.

    No way you'll get 18 on the lander trails with a manual. That's where I got my ultimate low of 3mpg. The terrain doesn't allow you to just ride through it.

    I'd plan on a bit worse mpgs. As you get better hwy tho and we will out on a ton of hwy miles in co and co should be pretty smooth driving.

    I'd want 6-700 for gas to be safe..

    How did you get e okay for leg three?? Stoked you'll be there!

    oh my god you don't even know! someone else's problem! i don't know how you had the patience for that. I destroyed half the dash getting to it i was so done messing with it. just started yanking shit apart till I could see the harness. then i actually had to use my brain and some finesse so i didnt destroy it.

    On the way out they were around 18 or 19 but the way back it was 12 to 14 due to the wind drag of the second RTT on the roof rack

    Haha well I'm sure a lot of it had t do with I actually cared about it as it was mine..haha but a..think the harness took 2 nights..so like 12-14 hours. Kinds had to do it to do it.

    The dash tho man..holy crap it's a pain to manipulate! Easier with no steering column..but still sucks.

    Now you understand a bit of Frankensteins plight..hahahaha
