I like the idea. Im hoping to get my truck back tomorrow if not early next week. Then I can put a few tanks of fuel through to get my new base line and then I'll have almost a 2000 mile road trip to test the tonneau cover.

the test isn't perfect but I stop at the same gas stations there/back because im OCD and the military gave me some good landnav experience so I know about my max range, and the dead zones (those signs stating 100+miles no gas station) lol.

I'll be going from little north of bay area in CA to about 30 minutes south of the Canadian boarder in northern Idaho.

Thank you all for your input as well. When I take a new hobby I ted to go all in and I have to scale back when life reminds me I have an actual job
