One Job Day: 673 Miles
Vehicle mileage between fill up is in the center, trip mileage on the left.
One tank of gas, from Woodland to Etna and Redding.
MPG is on the right. The upper number is the adjustment for larger diameter than stock tires.
Northbound on I-5 usually features a headwind. Now, because of El Nino, the winds are flag stiffening strong
and the drag drastically lowers mileage, but it improves a bit going south.
December 21, 2011.
I began my day in Concord, California. Drove, in the morning fog
to the California Sierra Express truck depot in West Sacramento then proceeded to motor north, way north, through the fields that provide much of the worlds rice.
past Redding, Shasta Lake
and Dunsmuir and Mount Shasta
to Yreka where I finally turned off I-5 and headed to Etna, the town, village, widening of the road
and delivered the massage chair,
sliding it from my Tundra into the bed of the customers Tundra so he could take it up to the ranch.
This country is where they grow those truckloads of hay we get behind and get pieces of straw stuck in the wipers and radiator.
Then I drove home.
A 673 mile day.
