Re: [Fot] 24 hours in a TR

["TeriAnn J. Wakeman" <tjwakeman@gmail.com>]

When you own a Land Rover Factory camper (1960 Dormobile) it is what you 
use on the long cross country trips and those epic drives.  But my TR3 
has been on 3 approx. 1000 mile each way trips with only one mishap, an 
alternator going out.

But there was a time when the Land Rover's gearbox was out being 
replaced when the TR had to fill in. With the passenger seat out, the 
Triumph could hold a big 120 lb bale of alfalfa and a couple 75 lb sacks 
of grain. To feed the livestock it took 7 round trips a week to the feed 
store & back. So a 3 can fill in as a farm truck as long as you don't 
have to haul manure.

I've done as much of route 66 as I can find Flagstaff on West.  I keep 
thinking I should finish the trip and take 66 East to the end.

Not as many long trip miles as many of you have put on them but I'm not 
done yet.
