Well it sucks that your post disappeared. For anything longer than a couple of hundred words, ALWAYS write it completely on a text editor or Pages or Word, then copy and paste it directly into your thread. Sorry, but I just can’t read your pictures, it would take me 30 minutes of back and forth scrolling. Was it a good experience?

Yes, a wonderful experience, coming from many trips from Michigan to Arizona on varied routes and different vehicles. The last 10 years we’ve had a ‘13 Jeep Rubicon 2 door, a ‘18 toy Tacoma TRD offroad, a ‘21 Jeep Rubicon diesel and a ‘23 Ford Bronco Badlands Sasquatch before the Ranger Raptor. 4900 miles , solo and towing 2 different trailers, the Raptor handled everything exceptionally well. Gas mileage from a low of about 6.5 mpg’s in eastern Montana at 70 mph going into a 40 mph wind to 22 in favorable conditions solo.
Thanks for the information, it’s helpful, but I’m just using an iPhone. I’ll keep the words down to a minimum as I can.

Use the built in Notes app, it is basically a (very) crippled text editor. Or you can try this.

Or you can do the writing in the forum, then copy and paste it into Notes “just in case”. I am glad your trip was good, when out West, mpgs are really affected by those seemingly endless head or tail winds.
