John i was in the XFC in Muncie Indiana driving 23 hours with non-stop just fore more and more gas from Sebring, Florida. I expend exactly $823.00 in gas driving my Yukon XL pulling a 12 feets trailer. I think you will expense more than $1,200 pulling with a Hummer and 44 feet trailer.

It also would have taken me about 25 hours one way to get there That is alot for one person. I hope you guy's have alot of fun and our safe. I told Jared to make sure he does not have work scheduled for the Dog's show Labor day weekend so we will be there.
