Labrador Highway
Did anyone made a trip on the Labrador Highway in 2013? If so, can you tell me what progress they made on the new construction project, and in your opinion, how much do you think will be completed in...

The last section has been completed, eliminating the 12 hour ferry ride.
Might want to think long and hard before taking that trip in a large motor home. When I rode(motorcycle) it in 09 and 10, I don't think I saw a car or truck that didn't have a broken windshield. The Trans Lab "Highway" (really a two lane gravel road for a long way) was extremely rough in sections. They only campers I saw were 4wd pickups with either a small trailer or an in-bed camper. Gas was very expensive in places, don't know about diesel.
That said I do it again in a heartbeat. It's the last wilderness on the east coast Nd truly an amazing place.
You might look into doing a tour of Newfoundland. Almost as wild and the major roads are paved. (And a short ferry ride will get you to Labrador, so you can say you were there)
