I just returned from my first long trip with the truck and Fifth wheel. Left NY last week for Jacksonville FL and returned 5 days later. Total miles were 2300 miles. The truck performed flawlesly. In fact, I never shut it off on each of the trips, just left it running at the truck stops. 20 hours down and 18 hours back. I had the cruise set at 70 on all the interstates.



The only problem was my fuel mileage, but I expected that doing 70 with the 5er. I averaged about 10 MPG. I'm convinced that drag is more of a factor than weight. My fifth wheel isn't exactly aerodynamic.



Just wanted to pass along a good report, since most of what is posted on forums has to do with problems.



By the way, the monster truck show was awesome.
