My wife, Mercedes, and I were one of tens of thousands who traveled to Texas for the recent solar eclipse. We trekked from Dallas to east Texas in the 2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X SUV (with extreme off-road package) to view the event in a prime location. Along the way, we’d visit off-road trails, camp, […]
