Another day of traveling. Had time to clean the coach and left in the rain. Left New Hampshire through the gorgeous Quichee pass and drove across the mountains of Vermont. Very beautiful country. The Newell handles like a sports car and the series 60 runs like a swiss watch. The torque of the Detroit Diesel provides more than enough power to easily climb the hills and my Jake brake now has the holding power to descend the grades. Mileage continued to drop as we ran through the mountains, but started to climb again after reaching the interstate. Overall fuel mileage is now at 8.27 mpg. For any one coming to the N/E area, New Hampshire has the best fuel prices since leaving Missouri.
