I was on vacation when you first brought this up. These are my suggestions/impressions: The "southern route". If you drive, the I10 to Las Cruces and I25 route from FL adds significant mileage to a Santa Fe trip. But the miles from Las Cruces to Santa Fe are scenic. If you take I25, be aware that official Rest Stops are 60 miles apart and towns are few. Socorro and T or C (Truth or Consequences) are about it for food/water/repairs until you get pretty close to Albuquerque. If you fly or come through Albuquerque and you find you are hungry: Garduno's in a local chain of restaurants serving local type food, and it is always good. Eating in Santa Fe: Blue Corn Cafe is good. If you're in the Plaza, find The Shed, I think its up Palace Street, but ask; The Shed is a local favorite and serves great food and it's nicely appointed, as they say. Sleeping in Santa Fe: If you want the usual sort of motel, Cerrillos Road is where they are. There is some traffic in the morning, but you'll get to the Plaza eventually. If you want to stay on the Plaza or near it, it costs some bucks, but what a way to wake up! Driving in Santa Fe: NM drivers are insane. Be careful. If you see a white Forester, get out of the way, it may be my sister or my brother-in-law. If you see a wise looking man with a big gray mustache and a ponytail (and driving an old red Subaru) that is my brother (or any one of a hundred others) -- he'll put you on the right path. Santa Fe: Explore all around the Plaza. Go up Canyon Road -- eatries and galleries. If you've never been to NM, or if you've never gotten above 7000 ft (Santa Fe/Taos elevation) you must drive up into the mountains: Hyde Park, Santa Fe National Forest -- shade, aspens and firs, grass. Near Santa Fe: Taos is great. If you go, take the "high road" through Chimayo and Las Trampas. Visit a weaver or two. The textiles are great. If you can, go to Bandelier National Monument (about 60 or 80 miles from Santa Fe), where you can see Pueblo ruins and some great scenery. Eating in Taos: Michael's Kitchen and Doc Martins (nothing to do with the shoes). Staying in Taos: This place is not convenient at all, but the scenery is great and the hosts/owners are magnificent -- The Columbine Inn up near the Ski Area in Taos. You get breakfast. The rooms are nice. If you hike, the owners will put you onto the best trails. If you want to know anything about Taos, ask them. They are sweet, just the best. Anything else: If you're in a gallery and you see that same wise, mustachioed fellow with the ponytail, buy whatever he's selling. If you see ceramics made by the Buoniautos, buy them immediately, and lots of them (my sister and her husband are the artists). Take care, have fun. Indian Market is great.

The Quad is still doing great (within 500 miles of 15,000 mile oil change). We have left the humid south for a few weeks stay in Northern New Mexico and Colorado. Am posting from a nephew's machine in Denver but getting ready to head up to the mountains tomorrow to do some fishing. I have seen a lot of F-150 Supercrews on the road but not too many Quads. At a campground in Albuquerque the guy in the next cabin had a Supercrew so we swapped stories. He couldn't believe I got my 4x4 for what his two wheel drive cost. themacguy (a little off topic) Next time you are in Sante Fe drive up to Chimayo and next to the old church there is a place that sell flavored tortillas and the best chilli relleno burritos in the state. The place is called Leona's.

I am in NM, I work in Santa Fe, and live in Chimayo, where do you live? I use Chevron gasoline 100% of the time, there's few Texacos within my convenience. As far as other people, well I've heard of pretty good mileage on their vehicles, I do divide properly like you say. I've seen multiple 90's Chevy truck owners say they've gotten up to like 21mpg, when I first got my truck I talked to this one guy, and he said that he got like what I get 13-14. My dad has a 85 Chevy with a 350 w/RV cam and headers 4 barrel and he gets about 14 empty, and about 12 with 100 bales of hay, or 4 horses. I've yet to see what my truck does under a load, maybe 10? I'm not even considering keeping it, cuz whatever the problem, it's only 12,000miles. Why wait for more miles and more problems. Then the dealer wants to get out of fixing it, they won't even look at the oil consupmtion problem. Anyway, I might already have it sold. I envy your mileage, by 250 miles on a full tank, I'm looking for the nearest gas station!!! Thanks alot, let me know what part of NM you're from.
