My GPS said something similar. I figured it got air mailed or something. I got it used on ebay.(tomtom) I now use a Garmin that has lifetime updates and tells you what lane to be in.

Last year my son drove on his drivers permit and the rest of the group were mindful of that. But, for the OP, just leave in enough time to make it to the venue by 6pm. If not, double stamp the next day. It's all good.Last edited by corvettedad; April 14, 2017, 08:40 PM.Pt 2010, Long Haul 2011,12,13,14,15,16,17, 18, 19, 23

Well following Dave ant that big of a problem, it's getting up in the morning and leaving when he does! If he he say's 9am he means 8:50! He be gone!
The first year I did it we ran 80-90 some days. Then other's we ran 60-70. It all depends on who, where and when! No matter the speed it's all fun. You want regret it no matter what you drive.
Retirement is better than I thought!

No, that was in Ohio in '14. That was a great road but yep, we had to throw out the anchor unexpectedly. Kind of missed that small town celebration over the last couple years. It was almost like most towns didn't care of didn't know we were coming thru.Visit my sons blog:

It doesn't overheat (normally ) so slow speeds should not be a problem. More concerned about many miles of high winding with various potential leaky spots...
Your 4.11 gears are going to put a major buzz on the old 302, but as I said drive how ever meets your situation. Good Luck!
