Holstein13, how many miles have your racked up so far, we are at 17,200. We started with 3,200 as the coach was brought from Canada to Florida for delivery. So, we've driven 14,000 since last November.

I'm at 14,265. At the end of my first fill-up, I was at 2,229 miles. I'm not sure how many I had on when I took delivery. I'm glad to see you are using the coach. Will you be in Asheville at the end of September? I will be. Then on to SoFla.

Yes, Sept. 15th-20th.

I've noticed that every time I fill up my tank on a Sunday, the truck drivers take the time to talk to me about my travels. Today, three of them asked about the coach, mileage, where are we from, etc.

Not that they aren't nice on weekdays as well, just seem to be at a slower pace and more relaxed on Sundays. I also like how 20-40% of the lanes are empty when I get there. Takes the pressure off to hurry up.

Ya know, in all the bad reports on truckers and how they've treated some of our fellow RVers on the road, that I've read on here, I can't seem to find any problems with them while out on the road. Not that I'm looking for problems with them. I too have talked to them at truck stops, restaurants etc. and, pretty much all of them have been real nice and cordial.

I'm not much for fueling at truck stops for my own reasons but, glad found a nice and pleasant experience with some of them while fueling up.

Yeah, I've noticed that too. I've been retired a long time but weekends still feel different from the week.
