Gotta love the Pacific Northwest. Just make sure you keep your fuel tank topped off; you never know when you're going to find another filling station while driving in the sticks. I learned this on a leg of a trip from the Pacific coast into Portland. Barely made it on fumes.

Bad muffler hangers can cause some STRANGE noises to come from the rear end of a Mercedes. Amazing how quiet they get after inspection and replacement of those doughnut hangers.
