Attention: TDR Forum Junkies Guys,
Thought I'd give you a mileage summary on 'Ol Blue. I went to the farm show in Louisville, KY last week and drove her @750 miles round trip. We ran @75-77mph most of the way and did a little drag racing around town. It was not intentional drag racing, but man..... they drive like mad up there, almost as bad as being in detroit. Anyway we got right at 21mpg on the trip. Pretty good on this winter fuel crap. Did see some nice trucks. Saw several newer Dodges with stacks in the bed. Also got to look at a new 2001 dually with rear disc brakes. I did not know they had gone to rear discs yet.
