Had great weather today so I took advantage of it...

100 miles. I used 2.6 gallons of fuel.

"If everyone drove a Jeep,  the world would be a better place"  haha    It is fun to drive an old Jeep out into the public and see the reactions.  LOL
 
I think you must have mis-typed 2.6 . .  that is not possible for 100 miles in a '2A Wink

I was manually rotating it... The Hyper-stabilization with the hero 7 black really helps keep things pretty smooth. Its hard taking driving video solo. Andrea is usually my camera girl. This video shows my setup. I don't use a selfie stick but I do have a small "tri-pandle"

Beautiful countryside and a fantastic video!  I can't wait to do the same in my '46 when it's finished!
I wish people would quit hittin' me on the head. MQ

None at all.... They are really close to a 7.00-16 in size.. maybe a tiny bit bigger but not as big as a 7.50-16
