    First time I've taken my 95 Roadmaster Wagon on a lengthy trip. Went to the Carlisle GM show over the weekend, a trip of about 300 miles one way for me. Checked the gas mileage and got 25 miles to the gallon. I've always read or heard that they get good mileage on the road but didn't quite believe it til now!!

    Not to mention the style and comfort. I wish, at least weekly, I would have kept mine.

    Yea, you have to figure in the comfort factor for sure. The show was good, but there would probably be a lot more vendors at the spring or fall shows. This was the all GM one. If I go again I think I would try one of those for that reason. My buddy bought two 4-speeds and I bought an aluminum tool box for the bed of my 92 S-10 4X4 I just painted and am redoing. We stuck one of the transmissions down in the well (with plastic around it) and the other in the tool box and still had plenty of room for our other stuff.
