Is it a ton of miles, no. But I like to stop frequently and stand up, walk around. I get uncomfortable on long stretches.
I understand... but if I take the trip's I'm planning... I'm not stop'n every 120 miles for gas on a 7-8k trip... it'd force me to add a couple days to the trip to have time to stop in certain places...
