After attending three Fests at 2425 miles one way, the 1563 to Phoneix will be a cake walk.

Gear up, autopilot on, TT on low boost.

Cut a few of those miles off, From Emporia, KS of of I-35 take routes 50/61/54 thru Kansas down to Tucumcarri NM. That's the way the truckers go and the route I always take to the Midwest and NE). Plenty of passing opportunities should you get behind slow traffic and you got the HP to make those moves...

And then from Holbrook, AZ off of I-40 take routes 77/377/277/260/87 into Phoenix. This route takes you through some of the most magnificent scenary in AZ (the Mogollon rim - pronounced "Muggy-yon").

Probably save you 100 miles or so and add to the enjoyment factor of the drive... PM me if you have questions on these shortcuts.

EITHER WAY, DRIVE ON!

After attending the last two fests in BG (over 4,400 miles round trip for each fest) your 1350 is a piece of cake.
