    Oh legit.

    I'm gonna try to be a good little boy and set the cruise at the speed limit and keep it there. As long as I arrive sometime Sunday to check into the hotel and rest up for Monday I'm good.

    Not gonna hypermile and piss everyone off though. Just plan to take it easy and leisurely. And try to enjoy the trip somewhat.

    Don't know if I already said but I also bought an EZ Pass to take advantage of express lanes and rolling through the booths without fully stopping.

    It's gonna save me time and hassle as well as the company something like $20 due to the discount. It's gonna cost about $68 round trip if I added it all up correctly. Plus about $180 in fuel.

    Still better than the $700 they were gonna pay for airfare.

    Thanks. I have one more shift left at this company. Hopefully I can end on a decent note and not miserable like tonight went.

    Just remembered I also have a 3 month trial of SiriusXM in the truck so that'll be useful on the drive.

    Okay so I drove north on I-81 then south on Rt 11 (red lights) to connect with I-76 and test my EZ Pass, west to the next exit then south on Rts 696/641 back home. I drove the speed limit most of the time but didn't go 70mph on the turnpike. 65 mph felt better and saved some fuel. It's what I'm used to from the tractor trailer. Cruise control set whenever practical. This is the result. If this is how it behaves to Chicago and back, I will be extremely pleased.

    Nice!! Don. I've had great luck with milage. The day I brought my truck home. Because it was a certified preowned. They owe you a tank of fuel. As soon as it was full. The dash said 706. And you know as well as anybody. Once you start your trip. That # will change. You should b pretty happy with your fuel efficiency. Great lookin truck man. I would have put money on you getting a 350 dually lol. But u got a sharp 150!!!
