We took the Bronco and Cardinal camping up to State Forest/ Ranger Lakes for some time away from the kitchen work. We did some fishing and feed the biting flys. Fun was had by all ( but the fish ).
Bronco got 13.14 mpg pulling the camper. I don't think that is to bad.

Looks awesome! We were just up in that area two weeks ago dirt biking and boondocking. Hope the mosquitos weren't too bad. My older boy got eaten alive. [emoji16]

That's a nice setup and 13 mpg is pretty good towing!
