The drive was was great. When I left Georgia fuel was 4.89/gal. When I left Kalamazoo fuel was 3.89, I almost didnt come home. I took nothing but a fuel filter and a gallon of oil. I thought my car would use oil but after driving a little over 2500 miles it only burned about a quart. This was the best road trip I have ever taken and I would not hesitate to drive anywhere now.
