So True but I didn't really have a choice. I brought along a lot of tools but no real work area. I had them do the basic stuff but I still need to get them to credit me some items on the invoice.

Not ours. She ran 80-85 MPH for 8-12 hours straight with some stops to fill her up and bathroom breaks but that little 4 cylinder was screaming and not even floored. I didn't want to push the limits. It keeps the speed unless going up a 1 degree or more incline! If you have had one you know what I mean. We made good use of the additional 3rd right slow lane on all occasions. We were right there with the truckers.
