The Witch's Castle is a really fun hike. Lots of giant trees and other cool things. It's part of a longer trail so you can go as far as you want. If you go to the castle and back it's about 2 miles.

I was intrigued by the diesel Suburban Z71 just for the fact I could drive near 700 miles on the interstate before filling up, but my short trips to and from work would probably not be ideal for a diesel engine. I do not know much about engines, but maybe someone here can elaborate on that.

I was going to recommend the diesel. I have the 3.0L (same one on the suburban) in my '23 Sierra. It is a beast. I have gotten as high as 42 mpg over a 50 mile stretch. About 20-21 mpg while towing, if you need to do that.

As long as you let it warm up for a few minutes and are driving 15 mins or so, the short trips really aren't an issue. I take my wife's car if I have to make a short trip to the store.

And if the DPF filter does get clogged, you just take a drive on the interstate and roll some coal. It happens mostly in the winter, but I live in Utah.

With that said put up a batch last weekend of regular but may make a batch with that peanut butter whiskey. Someone gave me a bottle and have never figured out what to do with it. Last night while eating a Reese’s peanut butter cup, I thought “maybe that would work in eggnog”

That sounds good to me. Please let us know…
