1.99 diesel at Conoco right off 44, near Joplin (hwy 43) if that helps anybody. Dunno if it's the winter blend or the wind as I head west, but I've got a low of 18 mpg on this trip and I need all the help I can get....

Maybe a combination of both. I noticed mine dropped so bad the last few weeks, I was looking for leaks

El Paso!

Got a surprise when I hit the Guadalupe mountain pass in the dark (went thru NM) you know there's trouble when they've got permanent wind warning signs. Sprinter was flippy...thought it was a mistake until I saw the view of El Paso stretching out between the mountains...amazing...like the sunset I was treated to in Texas....

Got diesel and was impressed by how clean it is here. Garbage probably just blows away :D

Just after, on the way to the J, I came over a hill and got a better view of the city laid before me, all the twinkling lights in the dark...beautiful..place is huge

Daylight should be a treat. They've sure got weird ass plants here :p saw my first tumbleweed

Well worth the trip, especially a paid one

New to me states: Illinois, Missouri, New Mexico and Texas

That's for the way back if there's time, 2000 miles later I shouldn't have added NM :D 18 min extra according to Google more like an hour and a half...

Waiting for 7 am local, broker got confused about time difference, El Paso is 2 behind...
