The 3.0L is a great motor, you should be seeing 30+mpg on the highway if driving conservatively. The T1s are very capable trucks in stock form, my advice is to just get out and use it.
My '18 Silverado on a mountain biking trip from Nashville to Sedona
The third day in Sedona was our biggest "Overlanding" day for sure. We ( and by we I mean me) decided to take the Silverado up to White House Mountain and camp at the top for our final night in AZ. The trail was great, and the truck did much better than I expected. I rubbed and scraped in some...
First day was 14 hours into Amarillo. Got a steak dinner and crashed in the hotel for the night. Then woke up early and headed towards petrified forest, which was closed because of the stupid government shut down. :rage::rage::rage:. Got into Sedona that evening and explored the town before...
Sorry guys, I kinda completely forgot I started this thread. The trip was a blast and we can't wait to take another! I'll start sharing pics of the trip and try to do a little write up as I have time.
We made it to the top of house mountain this afternoon, got here right at dark and are camping at the peak for the night. I drug the bike rack on a few of the drainage ditches, but other than that didn't really have any problems getting up. Super fun trail, till about the last 2 miles and all...
Pretty rudimentary here. I just throw all my junk up there and ratchet strap it down. Currently have a predator 2000 watt generator, portable gas fire pit, propane tank for said fire pit, and a 10ft awning.
We'll be in Amarillo tonight, then are heading to Sedona for a few days. After that we're going to make our way north and east ending in Albuquerque on the 4th.
I love mountain biking, backpacking, and motorcycle camping. But bike packing has never appealed to me for some odd reason. I think I fear I would lose too much playfulness on the bike and it would feel to much like work instead of a mountain bike ride.
Well I was planning on getting some pictures of our setup and packing strategy, but it was pisspouring rain while we were packing this morning so I'll have to get some pics from the road. T minus 16 hours till we hit the road.
Figured I would start somewhat of a log of our upcoming trip. Leaving Friday (12/21) for a 17 day road trip/adventure out west starting in TN. We will be mainly staying in our '18 Silverado with camper top and sleeping setup, with a few hotel stays mixed in as well. Our two dogs Frank and Clover...
