Chuck Hoskin? I don’t think I’d pay much attention to a tribal chief named Chuck Hoskin.

2011 Duramax pulling a 25’ Airstream. This was a few years ago, I can’t remember what kind of mileage we were getting.

When we went to DV, we passed through Baker coming from Mohave. We filled up with diesel there thinking that even at the high prices it would be cheaper than buying fuel in DV. We were wrong, diesel was .30 a gallon cheaper at Furnace Creek than in Baker. Who would of thought?
