well update i have made it all the way to Superior Wisconsin. Made it all the way to Devils Lake North Dakota the first Day only 16 hours of driving Finally got to bed at 3 am  lol. I Tried to find a hotel in Minot the entire city was booked untill Devils Lake . Started out with 16.9L per 100 km but at night it dropped to 20 L per 100 KM and all day today i have been getting 19-20L per 100 km i am very impressed at the gas milage that the power wagon gets 700 km per tank :D so far have only spent 300 dollars in gas :D so far i have 1843.2 km and only about 1315km left :D lol

and quick question why does every single trucker flash there lights at me when i have my low beams on and fog lamps on :@ :@ :@ :@
