Blog from Jack

The following is a bit of detail from Jack. He talks of things from a different eye.

The diesel fuel here is very expensive, but cheaper than gas. The motorhome has almost 40,000 miles on the odometer, and I believe the Cummings diesel is finally getting broken in, we have been averaging over 8 mpg which is pretty good considering that we are towing the Cherokee. In the past we have averaged about 6.5 - 7 while towing. The speed limit in Canada is fairly slow 70 - 100 kph (47 - 62 mph) which I am sure helps get better mileage, and allows us to enjoy the ride and scenery. We will reach the Alaska highway (AlCan) tomorrow and the road will become a little rougher with a lot of frost heaves and repairs. We anticipate reaching Alaska in 6-8 days.
