First two days went well. T'stat is keeping temps at about 213* F, with max at about 222* when climbing. The Diesel engine is running smoothly. The missing muffler is not noticeable at all. Suspension feels much more controlled with the new shocks. The axle-back undertray is staying put, nice and solid. Can't really say much about the FE since the past two days have involved mostly climbing, mostly gradual and some steep. However, the FE after 1 1/2 days of driving was 62+ mpg with an average speed of 60mph. I don't know how that compares to anything, but I certainly can't complain about it much!
Got past the peak of 11,992 feet altitude yesterday evening, and the rest of the trip is basically downhill... the Scangauge is currently showing over 67mpg, which even includes the climbs up to several summits, so the tank FE is looking pretty good.
