Default Re: Road trip with trailer

Returned from 17 day road trip on Saturday. Covered 5800 miles and sucked about 550 gallons of gas. Truck/trailer combo performed flawlessly.
Chose a US route, I-90 to I-80 around Chicago(Sunday evening-easy traffic Eastbound). Return trip came through Canada back home to Vancouver.
Visited a few car museums along the way. Deer Lodge Wy, good colection of cars with good muscle car display.Pioneer Museum in Murdo SD. Waste of $8. Its basicly a indoor junkyard with the parts still attached to the cars. Sad to see some rare muscle displayed like that. Also visited the Gilmore Museum at Hickery Corners Michigan. Beautiful facility.
Bonus of the trip was a tour of the GM Heritage Center and a special arranged visit to the support warehouses and facilities where the cars are maintained. Took lots of photos but were requested not to post to Internet for security reasons.
Purpose of trip was to attend Olds Nationals. Pictures are posted elsewhere.
My car on display.
