Well, we left yesterday (Sunday) to take our Winnie Drop to the factory in Middlebury, IN. Long trip. About 700 miles. Left Dover, DE at about 7-7:30 AM and got into Elkhart about 1AM. We were supposed to leave 4 AM but I stupidly set the clock for 3:30 PM instead of 3:30 AM. I checked the mileage on the Frontier for a couple of legs of the trip. I was getting 11mpg mostly through the mountainous area. Biggest problem is the small gas tank.
Dropped the Drop off this morning to have a window leak fixed, awning installed and I asked them to look at the propane function of the fridge since it didn't work on this trip. The unit was supposed to be ready Wednesday morning. Dave Bower, Warranty Mgr, called this afternoon and said it would be ready at 10 AM tomorrow. He said they replaced the rear window. It was not seating correctly causing the leak.
So, we are leaving a day earlier. Our hotel, the Sleep Inn in Elkhart changed our check out day and I called Wright Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio and got reservation at the FamCamp for tomorrow evening. That will beak our trip in half each day (instead of 700 miles in one day it'll be about 350 a day for two days).
