BT Catch Can installed
Got my new BT catch can installed today! All went well except for a missing bolt, but no biggie. I am taking a ~2000 mile trip to Florida starting tomorrow and I will be interested in seeing how much oil accumulates in the can on this trip. This is the standard satin can with free hoses, nothing fancy here.

Just curious, but why the truck over the Charger for the trip?
Nice addition and I would love to see you document how much you have at each fuel stop compared to how many miles you've got on it.

They honestly get about the same highway mileage and I don't really want to put 2000 extra miles on the Charger. Also, no spare on the Charger, less room for the wife's 15 suitcases. And most importantly, if I hit a deer or something in the truck it's just a truck, if I hit something in the car, I will probably cry.
I have an app on my phone to track gas mileage, but probably wont drop the can every time. I dropped it today after my 15 mile drive home from work and it was hotter than hell! No oil in it though.

Thanks, and I will.
Hopefully, I can pull out of Tulsa by 6:00 tonight so I can get to our cheapo hotel in Jackson, MS by 2 AM, sleep a little while and do the last 5 hours Saturday morning.

I had originally planned to drive straight though, 14 hours, which I didn't have a problem with. But, that would put us there about 8AM and I would want to sleep the rest of the day.

I've done the OK-Las Vegas straight through before and another time we stopped in Alb. NM and slept for a couple hours. We're supposed to go again in July, but we'll be stopping half way again. Be careful Morgan.
