    Bobtail mileage

    DD15, DT12 trans, 3:08 diffs towing 68-72 8.4mpg bobtail 70-72 11.5-12.5 depending on winds and hills. The best mpg towing 9.3 bobtailing 13 mpg.
  2. I try and use the adaptive cruise as much as possible it keeps us a safe distance away and adjust automatically when a vehicle fills in the gap. The best part is it uses the standard brakes to slow or stop you so the brake lights are activated.
  3. Made it to Houston today for a Dr's appointment before heading to the WCR and the weather from Gulfport, MS to Lake Charles, LA was incredible. The rain had to be falling 4-5" an hour and the wind was blowing 20-25 right on the nose. We ended up sitting on I10 for 2 hours east of Lake Charles waiting for them to remove a semi that hydroplaned and rolled on its side. We arrived at Lakeview RV park in Houston to find that they had changed our site from a 70' pull through to a 40' backend when I ask them where would they like me to park my 26' long truck they moved someone else to the small site. We had a great time at the ECR and hope everyone made it home safely. Richard and Evelyn Oder
  4. Hello from Texas and welcome. Nice red truck but I have to ask why are you limited to a bumper pull in FL? Richard
  5. It was a very nice day today, we left Houston area about 9am. Heavy traffic in a few places but other the that it was a good day.
  6. We just pulled into KOA in Baton Rouge, LA on the way to the Tampa RV show.
  7. Someone had a great idea the last time we had this conversation. We need to have a group of 10-15 HDT and make a trip out of just going to Bucee's one after the other.
  8. Try the one in Waco also! I've already been tossed out of that one. And welcome to Texas the sun is out and it is warm. We are just east on New Braunfels on 21.
