Driving the Trans-Labrador highway

Expedition Leader
A team from Cars.com drove from Toronto to Red Bay, in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Vehicles were two Toyota Tundra pickups, one towing a 20 foot enclosed trailer. The 3600 mile round trip took 10 days.

Road conditions varied between snow-covered pavement and frozen gravel to 800 miles of slushy mud. Under these conditions, the trucks averaged 16 mpg without the trailer, and about 8 mpg when towing. One truck suffered a cracked housing on the front axle ABS sensor, disabling 4x4.

The two part report is found here
