    Spent the better part of the aftrnewn removing copious quantities of "the sacred soil"...both in & out.

    I never remove all of it, for fear of angering the off-road gods of Moab...

    Found all sorts of mis-placed snackage that I thought the squirrels mustv' eaten...

    Tomorrow, gonna try to give her an oil change, & mebbe even slather her flanks with the grape jelly + a coat of wax.

    Only used 1.5 qts of oil during the whole 3K trip...

    Picked up some Lucas syn 20w50 as my "add oil, oil"...Seemed to work OK.

    Rarely had a cruising speed over 70, usually 65-68ish...

    Best mileage of the whole trip was 13.47...

    Wash off / vacuum out 500 lbs and 2 years of Moab dirt and I bet you'll see another 2-3 MPG or my name ain't Rusty Shackleford.
