Did you have to walk uphill in both directions with no winter jacket to Groton?

lol, just thought I'd check.  I'm sure it is a lot worse up there.  I drove back from VA last night and coming through NJ was a little hairy at moments.

See you tomorrow night.

It actually did very good.  I never even put it into 4 wheel.  I pulled a 5x5x8 box trailer there and back (loaded top to bottom forward to back on the way down) with ease and still averaged over 16mpg.  I thought that was a very good number considering a box trailer punches a giant whole in the air.
