Thanks everyone for their quick responses and advice! We are traveling in early August and are planning on leaving between 10pm Aug 3 and midnight Aug 4 and I've set our arrival to Fishing Bridge sometime on Aug 7. I am taking first shift and will be able to sleep the day away in order to be road ready. We'll have 3 drivers although I'm a bit nervous having my 20 yr old take the wheel even though he drives our stock trailers. Ha! My husband is very experienced with driving semi's and such and does a lot of long haul driving. I will have him drive that stretch from Cody to YNP. We have a diesel truck pulling the TT and my husband had suggested putting the filled diesel tank in the bed because we'd have the room. Anyone know if there's any restrictions to doing that? We know diesel will be expensive but we want to make sure we have plenty. We are also having the truck serviced and checked out before leaving. We've already checked the camper and packed wheel bearings, 4 new tires, and checked brakes and all is good. I'm wondering if we should just drive and find a campground along the way for each night. Possibly we could overnight in Cody because Fishing Bridge check in is anytime after 11:00 am. We live north of Cincinnati and our actual address shows 1636.5 miles to Fishing Bridge and 1286 miles to Devil's Tower. Looks like I need to do some more planning.
