I also have a place in St G..... I used to run my GMC pickup north all the time, but a few years ago (2014) I bought a chevy cruze (40mpg) to do the running north now and leave my truck up there..... I call the cruze my hillbilly pickup..... nice to go north and back on 12 gallons of gas.....
I'd love to do that except I'm a carpenter/Builder and always like to have my tools on hand. I built my place 10 years ago and always have projects going on and some maintenance as I rent it out during the summer months so there's always things to do. I'm slowly building a second set with the older ones I have but still struggle to be without the tools. One of these days I'll stop tinkering and just hire someone! LOL
