JimK, we are relocating to MI. Having a moving company taking our stuff in Jan. Mama is selling her car, and getting a new one in MI. She refuses to travel that road in the winter - is flying down:). I have another year left in my job, and have to decide if I want to be based up here, or in the lower 48, and commute, etc. I would much rather do the drive in the Spring, and enjoy it. I have to figure all that out. I do have a diesel truck. I drove up to AK twenty years ago in an old beat up Dodge with a slant six, developed a dead cylinder on the way, with all my possessions in the back, in Feb. Didn’t know any better. My truck finally broke down in Tok. Starter died. Didn’t really know what cold was until that trip. I’m in a much different position now, but 40 below plus is still 40 below plus. Now that I remember, I believe my propane tanks may be out of date. Have to look into that. Thank you all for the replies.
