First road trip with the new truck . Florida to New England and back to prep a house for sale.
Because my ARE top was not ready yet (waiting since January) the dealer let me barrow a Truxedo tonneau cover (Exceptional product. Highly recommended.)
Stopped in South Carolina rest area to walk the doggie.
Spending Easter with my parents in Massachusetts. Now I know why I moved to FLA!
Loaded to the cover on the way back! (FYI - That's advanced level packing)
I got 22 MPG on the way up driving around 67 MPH. On the way back, I was up over 70 MPH and MPG suffered - around 19.
I paid $4.79 to $4.89 for diesel using Gas Buddy. Filled the DEF tank before I left FLA and then again before I left New England.
The roads around NYC are bad. I think my alignment is out a bit. FE is pulling a bit more to the right than I think it should. Didn't notice it on way up, but did on return trip.
Good news is my travel trailer is in final finish and that means a trip to Round Rock, TX.
The truck performed as expected and I've got no complaints.
... ok, I've got one small one.
On Easter, I let my dad drive the truck. The fields were muddy and the road he punched into the woods for logging was wet. I told him to put it in 4WD low and see how far we could get. He's got a backhoe so I wasn't worried about not getting out. But, slightly disappointed that we didn't get far. The 6.7 is heavy and the highway tires did nothing. Oh well, he put it in reverse and we backed out ok. He was still impressed with the truck.
