Nice job on the VA wedding. We have a variety of environments given the range from mountains to beach. I am not sure I have heard of where you were but sounds amazing. Sterling is in Northern VA outside of DC. So a little over 500 miles. Which takes about 8 hours down interstate 81. I started up a "NOVA Convoy" thread to see if anyone from where I am to event wanted to jump in line. Looks like we may have some last minute stragglers or drop outs. Seems to always be the case when planning a trip. Last year I toted my glorious off road camper. Man it was beast in the mountains, weighing in at about 4300 lbs. I under estimated the gas budget. Took me 7 tanks to get there and 4 on the way home. Didn't really need the camper at the time for the event, but had just picked it up and told myself this is why you bought it, for trips like this. After that trip, i told myself this why you are going to sell it because of distances like this...haha. All end goal for the rig is to have a jumping jack trailer with a UTV on top for camping excursions.
Haha yeah, we are usually booked toward the Johnson City, TN to lower part of VA the most so we do frequent VA often. From Wise to Abingdon to Tunnel State Park to name a couple. Not bad though but the drive does suck sometimes.
Can't imagine towing a camper long distance....and the gas also too. I tow sometimes for work hauling equipment and its a b*tch on gas but luckily I get mileage reimbursement though so I can't complain.
I had originally planned on getting a military trailer to fix it up and make it a small camper/supply out of it but that's a long time down the road though.
