After 130 miles of mostly 4WD in snow and muddy roads at 20PSI tire pressure we filled tank to top at 11.516 gal and put the rest in the AEV fuel caddy till it was full at 13.044 ($44.34). This 1.528 gallons was in addition to the 9.418 gallons already in the Caddy for a total of 10.946 gallons and $37.21 in the aux tank. Tire pressure was set to 36 PSI at this point and we departed Mt. Shasta Chevron for home via 89 to Susanville.
