Well i made it 383 miles yesterday that does not really sounds like alot but it really is we got a late start. The truck is running good so far the weakest link is the human element. its 0720 mountain and i am trying to wake my better half up so wecan get on the road i wil let ya'll know how that turns out

When I hear of the road trips, I wonder what the average time is behind the wheel of a duece before people need a break.Good luck with the new truck!

Good luck and I am saying a prayer for your safe trip. I thought 330 miles was a hike. Wow I am looking at a similar recovery in the spring in the M818. We are really looking forward to the pictures.

God bless

Jay, my longest day in a deuce was 700 miles and that was with another one piggybacked on the back. I refuel at no more that 300 miles but honestly rarely make it that far. The truck runs longer on a tank of fuel than the bladder does. 300 miles is around 6 hours in the saddle and thats quite a bit. I ALWAYS have a cooler stocked in the front seat and snacks at the ready.
