    Planning 1200 Mile Recovery MN to NC

    I drove mine back from Delaware to Texas in January. 1700 miles and had no issues at all. The guy I purchased it from had the oil and filters changed and topped off all the fluids and new batteries......and I though that was very nice of him to do that. I flew myself and my brother up there...
