Alaska trip 2018

[caseyhoward]

We are planning our driving trip to Alaska in 2018.
I have a question for my experienced Alaskan Travellers From the lower 48.
We are departing Houston Texas the mileage round trip will be 7000 plus. We have a 25 ft Nash weighing in at 6800 lbs. I have a 2009 Silverado with the Duramax with 150,000 miles on it now. I have a maintained at meticulously and it runs like a top. Have any of you pulled from the lower 48 up to Alaska with that mileage on your truck?
Thank you for your response. Happy birthday America.

I believe the key is..."I have a maintained it meticulously and it runs like a top." Have a great time!

I do not have a truck, but a MH and have traveled to Alaska several times.
MH has nearly 180,000 miles. We pull a toad.
As long as rig is in good shape won't have any problems.
I would ask what size fuel tank you have. Some of the smaller fueling places have disappeared over the years. There is a couple stratches of around 200 miles.
It is a great trip! Things have changed since I first went to Alaska in the '60s. Take your time!
