In some parts maybe. The only time I drove to Alaska the AlCan was gravel for 
long stretches. Hard on tyres. But I understand -- it's hard to build stable 
highways on permafrost.

I do OK on mileage - 25 with the Beemer, 21-22 with the little pickup and 50+ 
withe the motorbike.  Bv)=

      Title: Pimento's High-Mileage Pesto Italian Meatballs
 Categories: Beef, Pork, Cheese, Sauces, Herbs
      Yield: 3 servings

    1/2 lb Ground beef * 
    1/2 lb Italian sausage
      1 c  Seasoned breadcrumbs
    1/2 c  Water
      1 lg Egg
    1/4 lb Grated Parmesan
    1/4 c  Pesto
      1 ts (ea) salt & pepper
      1 ts Dried, crushed oregano or
           - Italian seasoning mix

  * You can use ground turkey but I think ground turkey
  is gross -- Pimento

  Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl; start with
  a spoon, but finish by kneading it with your hands so you
  get everything very evenly mixed together.

  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, then use a 1/8
  cup measuring cup to scoop out the meat mixture and roll
  with your hands into a ball. (This is a perfect-sized
  meatball: not giant, not bite-size, but in between).

  Bake for 20 minutes at 400°F/205°C and promptly remove
  from the pan.

  Like most everything I cook, this makes a big batch so
  there are plenty of left-overs for lunches and post-run
  or workout snacks. The first night I usually serve them
  with pasta, red sauce, and a salad or other vegetable,
  but they are fantastic to use for meatball subs, too.
  Make these the day before, then throw them in the
  CrockPot in marinara a couple hours before dinner time
  and serve with cheese and rolls for make-your-own
  meatball sliders.

  Fast, easy, satisfying, cheap, good for several meals -
  these balls do it all. Enjoy!

... I hate people who are not serious about meals. It is so shallow of them.
