I'm beginning to see why I can never make the time that GPS says... You make an epic trip like this - there's no way I CAN'T stop by every shop along the way... it just doesn't make any sense to be that far from home - and not enjoy the sights.

Oh! Wait.... it sucks to be you two because you have to get back to work. Sorry I even mentioned it. Stupid me! LOL

I didn't get to meet up with Rob at Cars and Coffe when I was in Cali for my daughters wedding.

Yeah good idea right here, then that way you will drive over the Braga Bridge and I'll collect my toll (its expensive) next time I see you.

Cool old school vibe to go along with the Nascar theme.
A Ford guy going to help a Chevy guy pick up a Ford.
A Chevy guy picking up a Ford to tow his Chevy.

:hello:

No matter what, I'm in love with the hauler. Those things just keep popping up on my radar. I would love to find one and put a Diesel motor in and still be able to tow a 24" enclosed trailer.

I'm with Brett on this one! I had one of these for a tow truck many years ago.Bring lots of fuel money for fuel:G-Dub: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I was getting 6-7 miles to a gallon..:eek:

There was one here on Craigslist forever it seemed in Bakersfield. Like 3900 and a Chevrolet. But this journey will be more fun.

Not going to Austin Tx? Best food & music.

Cool trip, Just a year too late for me, would have tagged along. Have fun

I heard you should skip the Salt Lick. Way over rated from what I hear.

Well.... yeah.... you do need an appreciation for good food. They don't serve booze unless by special arrangement... and by the time DG spends his IRA on fuel and tires... McDonalds will be on the top of the food chain.


LOL



My only issue with this whole trip is that I'm not going along for the ride....

Too bad they're hauling that Camaro because they can't strap a 1000 gallon fuel bladder on the hog. :D
