We don't have of "those" around here. :stirthepot:
:lmao:

Hmmmm :headscratch:

Now that I really doubt.:twak:

:ohsnap: yeah, forgot about that Vette that is 1,000,000 pcs now :shakehead:

Dave/Rob, did you find the phone app that finds all the microbrews along a given route? So you put in a location from and to, it shows you all the micros/breweries along the route..can't remember the name off hand though. I knew a guy that did a trip last year with it and loved it.
Edit: found it, BreweryMap app. Just plan a route and give it a distance off the route...260 showed up from Charlotte to LA for example :happy23:

Be safe and roll on!

Every chance I get to follow this one, I have this crazy song playing in my head that says something about "west bound and down, loaded up and truckin, were gonna do what WELD says can't be done" lol

Thanks man. I just downloaded that app. Looks cool. We've been using the TV Food maps site for food and then cross referencing with Yelp and other sites. We've been scoring at a high rate so far. :cheers:

Saw that piece you did for Ron.... man that was ridiculous cool. :thumbsup:

Haha, that is awesome I swear after reading your post on my phone while on the road I was singing the song with your lyrics and then could not get it out of my head. :rockin:

Got loaded up at Payton's house and headed out west. A 68 Camaro sure makes a good tote.

It's tough to get good service out of a gas station attendant these days.

Pretty damn good parallel park job if I don't say so myself :D

A typical conversation on this trip with the countless locals that walk up to chat about the truck and/or car goes like this:

Local dude: "Cool truck"

Me: "Thanks!"

Local dude: "Nice Camaro, is that a 66?"

Me: "Yep"

Local Dude: "Is it in good shape?"

Me: "Yeah, but our friend the owner will f*ck it all up"

:cheers:

Had a great time meeting Rob's idol and engine guru Blair Patrick. Another good ole boy who was a great host and a joy to chat with and learn about rare and mostly forgotten Ford motors. :action-smiley-027:

I'll let Rob expand on our experience down there...

Got to Tennessee and just had to stop at the fireworks stand amongst the many Drive In Theater Screen sized billboards. :eek:

So to many of you this may not be cool but in the Communist state of California you would be arrested and waterboarded for this... so we thoroughly got a kick out of it. :) And it's amazing that it is legal to launch right next to anything (per the store gal I bought it from) such as power lines, gas tanks, etc.



Some key numbers so far:

1684 miles driven
MPG high 8.5
MPG low 6.0
$1239933 paid in turnpike tolls up and down the east coast :bang:
Truck scale says 8500# loaded with 68 Camaro body
2 warning tickets by Mass and NH state troopers (both in the rental car :D)

Made it to Nashville for some sliders and fried pickles.... off to bed and another long driving day tmrw.... :gitrdun:

Wow!

So much winning.:thumbsup:


:thankyou:

If you see Keith Urban, tell him Roger says hi

We're both from Australia, I'm sure he'll remember who I am

Fireworks through the high wires. That is a slice of 'merica, right there! :thumbsup:

Take care of that 66 :lol: :cheers:
