Hey all,

Just returned from 4 days in SuperVan checking out the sights in VT and
NH.

Some Specs for the Geek in you:

Miles: 420
Average Speed: 35.0 MPH
Max Speed: 74.6 (oops)
Mileage: averaged 15 MPG

Only issue was a clogged fuel filter the took out the fuel pump (my
fault). I installed the spare pump and filter and off we went, no
sweat.

In VT we visited Queechee and the Floating Bridge in Brookfield (very
cool, a bridge w/ no piers).

In NH we ran up Rt 10 to Bath, then over Rt. 112 to Conway and down Rt.
16 to home.

Over all a great trip, lots of fun and a bit of adventure. I do wish
the van was faster, especially up the mountains (hit 1st gear a few
times - eek!), but that is all a part of the je ne sais quoi, no? (SP)
  ...JMM
