I'm 3-4 days away still. Yesterday I had my three kids in the car for 12 hrs LOL Today we will try to get deep into Washington.
i am getting 12-14 us mpg with the m101 trailer. are you sure that math is right? 15 mpg in a 3FE with a trailer would be phenomenal.

Yup I got it right.... but it's with a 3B not a 3fe. I took my BJ60 on this journey. Today I pushed into 20 I think for mpg. I filled up in Kelowna and went direct to clarkston, wa thru Osoyoos and then on the 395. Then it took 65 dollars of diesel at 4.45 a gallon.

Clarkston/Lewiston is absolutely beautiful. The drive down the hill is amazing.

Now I'm two days away! I got to Mountain Home, ID today. Nice drive from Clarkston to Mountain home, quite the descent down into the park outside Lewiston. I was wondering why my truck was sucking ass soo much then I found out it was 5200 feet at the summit around Cascade. I've driven almost all mountain roads since leaving Northern BC I'm ready for some flat interstate stuff.
