Last year the wife and I drove from Arkansas to SD then west to the I5, I90, I405 parking lots called seattle. Then we drove South to Oragon to see a old friend then NV, CO. NE and back home. I had a oil change done before we left and did another after we got back. Trip was about 4000 to 5000 miles. Only complaint I had with the car was the 2.5 would not do the speed limit in the Idaho mountains with out sounding like the engine was going to explode.
