Been on one for a week 200 miles away, leaving Wednesday for 5 weeks going to South Carolina and Florida then back to SC and home to Texas about 3500 miles. In June going to Colorado for 10 day trip then in July leaving on a 3 month 6500+ mile trip west and northwest. Nothing planed after that but we will probably go somewhere in Texas in the fall and then a local city park for Thanksgiving.

7 MPG ? Our semi gets that rolling 80000 pounds.

Really stepping up our camping since the arrival of the new TT this year. On a normal summer we would only take 2 trips but those two trips combined amounted to 3 weeks.
Now On top of that, we have an additional 2 trips planned for a couple of long w/e's and have more in the works.
Told the DW, "now that we have this juicy TT plan on doing a lot more camping!!!"
First time in a long time that im actually looking forward to camping.
cant wait!!

On our trip to Disney we averaged 8 mpg, but that was flat land. When towing up hills we drop to 7 mpg.
Wow, I get about 14-15 pulling my 20 footer.
