Glad you all made it home safe. Our prayers and condolences were with you. Not bad on the mileage, my little truck got 28 mpg last week on my trip to ABQ, 3 mountain passes, and a lot of off interstate roads. Jimi
Hi Gang! Just wanted ya'll to know that Jody and I got home safely this afternoon from our trip for Jody's Mom's funeral in Eugene, OR last Thursday. It was a sad occassion, but Jody did get to see her five sisters and her brother and lots of nieces and nephews. Sad about Mom passing, but she was ready to go and went easily, in her sleep. It had been some twelve years since all the siblings had gotten together, so that part was fun. Jody's Escalade averaged 19.5 mpg, driving at 70 - 75 mph on I-20, I-25, I-80 and I-84, and 70 mph on lesser roads, going slow for construction at times and slow through some towns when off the interstates, plus going over 5 mountain passes, from 4,200 ft to over 8,000 ft, and being loaded down with our stuff and a bunch of things Jody's Mom had left her. I know 19.5 mph sounds like JIMMY D braggin, but Scout's Honor, that's what we averaged for those 4,400 miles. It's good to be home, all except the 808 messages I received while gone :-P JIMMY D -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
