Hi,
 The 80 route is fine. I go from Portland to Portland via rt.90/80 and drop
down in In. to the show, It is 1000 miles. I can do it in 17 hrs( 21 with
jams, slow going)  , fully loaded, I am always fully loaded on the way back
because I sold the junk I took out there and replaced it with new junk,,,,,
 You will get 9.3 miles to the gallon on the way home, just and "edecated"
guess,
Let me know if you can take Steve's engine along
