    the trip went uneventfull. total weight was less than i had expected. i put the scales at 25,590 lbs. full tank of fuel, me not in the truck(add another 200lbs fully dressed) and trailer ready to go.



    i will be looking for a smaller cargo box for the front of the trailer. thinking about placing all of the tools into a small covered trailer so i can move them place to place much easier. if i end up towing into a state in the future that does not allow doubles i can pull the blazer to the front a bit and put the trailer on the flat bed...



    mileage with an 11 foot high "brick" wall behind me was 10. 1 for the entire 2800 mile trip, hand calc. VERY rare did i go over 59mph on the GPS. when i did mileage plumited to about 8. 5 on the overhead.



    saw a lot of states, and this being the first time to live on the east coast, only the third time to be here... i like it...
