    something sounds wrong there to me. 1100 miles and 20 hours. thats averaging a stout 55 mph. get your radar detector going. wow, i just checked mine on mapqwest. it says it's 1767 miles and almost 26 hrs. that averages to about 68 mph. :)

    Maybe he is averaging it both ways (downhill and uphill).

    Takes longer from Canada i would imagine cause there is usually a wait at the border depending on the time of day

    1546 miles from here...would sure love to see a Roundup held in Montana, or North Dakota, Idaho, Wyoming, South Dakota, Minnesota, even Nebraska...you get the picture. :rolleyes:

    Apparently takes a LOT longer if you're me...two of the last three times I've crossed I've had to provide ID, fill out forms, empty pockets, remove socks and shoes, basically everything short of a cavity search while they go through the vehicle with a fine-toothed comb. :mad:
