Re: 500 mile road trip with OVERDRIVE!!

That`s a pretty good shakedown.I guess the real benefit will be running flatland,as well as no a/c.It`s a trade-off with a small motor vs hills,a/c,rolling kinda fast,and all.I bet a run to the beach(or even up my way) would show some top mileage.
I went through my C/10 pictures earlier today,ran across your truck,and had a thought.It may help your mileage,too,uh...maybe?How would you like to have some painted bumper gaurds to trim that truck out?I just got them because they are rare,but don`t have any use on anything I have.LMK if you want them.It would sure make me proud knowing they went on that classy li`l stepper.
