Re: 81 Chevy K10 ShortBed

Well the road trip was a success 1900 miles total got about 9-10 mpg while towing. Towed fine, slow in the hills especially at 5000+ feet in elevation which is most of the 93 in Nevada/Idaho. Did 65-70mph the whole way up and down, a gear vendors would have been great 2700-3000rpm the whole time got old.

There was a roll over accident just south of Wells, Nevada was stuck here for 2 hours as they had to airlift 2 people out of there. Got my windows tinted before I left, AC works better now.


and a TON of this flat land lol




You really don't want to break down out there cell signal is out of the question for most of the 93.
