Thanks for the input guys. It's kind of what I thought. I'm leaving at midnight out of Denver and shooting for Reno NV in one straight shot.
Kids should sleep for half that part. Into Sacramento and up to Redding. Then over to Crescent City and all the way up to Seaside. On the way back hoping to see Shoshone falls if the days work out right.
It is a much needed break from the mortgage biz!

I'll just forego any mods to the aero, and try and keep my foot out of it. Last time I drove to San Diego I was averaging 80 MPH til I got on to that long desert strip in Cali. Managed about 300 miles on the tank.

I heard a statistic that lifting it another .75 inch off the ground with the larger tires decreases my fuel something like 5 more percent! Think I'll try and take the advice to go as light as possible too.

Thanks again everyone. take care!
