Down along out of El Paso into San Antonio along I-10 has a series of mountain ranges to the south towards the Rio Grande. <br /> <br />I see it as several hundred miles of Cattle, Mountains and Wilderness. And potential problems with immigrants but not really expected. The biggest problem was for fuel as the company I ran for did not permit fueling between El Paso to San Antonio Which meant either Lordsburg traveling east for fuel or San Antonio going west it was a challenge for me. The freightliner FLD 120 with the 470 detroit provides consistent 800 miles non stop and you already ate 600 of that to cover these two points. That does not leave much room for margin in bad weather.
