I left BRon with 3/4 of a tank of gas, a top off of the oil, a half eaten pack of trail mix and a slightly warm but unopened Gatorade. Oh and a collection of CDs for his listening pleasure.

He had a support truck following him so I figured that was more than enough and I waved goodbye to Betsy.

Rob,

I have been following your Torino build here and on Jay's site.

When you started the trip with Ramp Truck I was planning same drive with another old truck.

I read thru all the posts but forget which route you actually took?

I am hoping to make trip in less than 4 days with an even older FORD truck but a F600.

Would you do it again?

My trip is planned for 3wks from now . . . The truck I will be driving is nearing 50yrs old. I have no clue on the MPG but thinking it will be at least 1000 in fuel. Leaving from SE area of NY.
