I just returned from and epic journey in my 2017 200 Series. I left the Midwest in July and headed to Alaska where I guide in the summer. Each year I flew over this great land and this time around I decided to drive.
I drove 10,390 miles in great comfort. Saw some awesome country and parts in between. I averaged over 16 mpg the entire trip with a lot of driving in the mountains. The dual battery system that Slee installed was great running my National Luna refrigerator and the Gamiviti rack held all the gear on top without any problem whatsoever. The Jowett oil cap and Fumoto valve on the pan made oil changes a breeze and I can't say enough about the Nitto Terra Graplers for a smoothie quiet ride.
I would do it again without hesitation, but it's hunting season down in the lower 48 now so I have others uses for the vehicle. Say what you want about these vehicles but this is one of 3 that I own and as long as I can get em I will continue to drive em.
