First Road Trip For Ole Leroy!

Just got back from a long weekend trip from Va Beach to Lexington VA, up through Petersburg, Farmville and Lynchburg. Started out with 467 mi, and have 1087 back in the driveway. According to the data display, I'm getting 17.5 average overall, and today's trip home was 20.2 even with rolling 65-70 most of the time. The 467 was all around town driving...

The Pedal Commander is working fine, and I love being able to change the throttle sensitivity to suit the situation.

Between Lynchburg and Lexington, the roads have lots of steep, twisty sections (looks like a whole bunch of Zs and Ws all strung together) and the manual control mode of the transmission was smooth as silk, and easily kept me from having to ride the brakes.

One thing I did discover is that the Cruise Control is terrible at dealing with short, steep, up and down hills. Works great on more even terrain, but the radar feature gets faked out way too easy. Most likely I need to look up how to turn down the distance...

Overall, I'm ecstatic with my new "Toy" and can't wait to be able to make the first road trip to Ouray in 20 years with it!

 

Jeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnkkkkkkkkkkkkins?

When you set the cruise control, there should be a button on your steering wheel that will change the distance between your vehicle and the one in front of you.


At least on mine there is anyway.
