That's what I'm most worried about being there for 2 weeks. I'll have to talk to the owner of the cabin we're renting to see what's around there. I know there's a pavilion right near my cabin that has a bbq and a few picnic tables under it. That'll be my new garage if there's any sign of hail coming. I also think there's some large tree around by the pictures I've seen.

And don't be doing this!

I just entered my fill up from Flagstaff, AZ to Kanab, UT and averaged 23.3 mph for 207 miles. This had a few downward slopes and also a couple good climbs up some passes but it mainly was fairly flat. I readjusted the dash computer because it was off from the factory 1.6 mpg and now it's dead on to my Fuelly app.

I was 3 tenths lower hand calculation. Did some off-road, 68 mph average highway. Overall very satisfied. My wife kept saying we should have taken the Maverick hybrid… I said yeah but we couldn’t have gotten to the few spots off-road where she dearly loved. So she quieted down.. :muscle:

I forgot about this pic I took. I wasn't sure whether to post it here or in the Redneck thread. lol

Ok, fess up. Which one of you used shrink wrap for a tonneau cover? :oops: ?

Today we're off to Victor, Id where we're staying while visiting Grant Teton. I'm going to follow directions I got from Jim @JimJa which takes you through some really nice back road areas once we get outside Salt Lake City, UT. It looks to add several hours to the drive but I don't mind as I love seeing "off the beaten path" areas. It also looks like the weather there has changed, this time for the better. They had every day with showers except Monday now it looks like only a few hours of rain later today. :whew: Hope it stay like this.

Safe travels! Can’t wait to see the pictures and Tremor performance updates. Exciting to see that your itinerary has you visiting AZ twice ?
Thanks Steve. Lol @ AZ twice. But we did stop at the grocery store before leaving and on our way home I have reservations in Flagstaff for a few days leading into the 4th of July. Not sure if we're going to stay there yet. It'll all depend on weather and how much money Annie spends shopping. :(?

Nice pic of your truck. I thought you got the hard cover?

Dave, If you are able to go online suggest you check Dan Day at "Cowboystatedaily.com" for weather. He's excellent and accurate, looking ahead for the next day or two. Unfortunately for your trip it's been raining every day for the past two weeks and the forecast is for more of the same for at least 10 days. Now the rain we have in WY is not like other parts of the country, rarely do we get "gully washers," instead it will sprinkle with perhaps a short period of actual rain, then stop, repeating off and on throughout the day. Dress accordingly, hope for the best and try not to let it interfere too much with your holiday.

Just got to the AirBnb cottage we rented here in Victor, ID. I'm so glad I canceled the hotel in Jackson, WY and got this place. It's a great set up with zero neighbors close by and only about 3/4 mile to the center of town. Plus it was less money! ?
