Taking a small road trip tomorrow to swap some parts. I'm going from Akron,Ohio to Fort Wayne Ind. Doc Strange is going to meet me at EFRIEDRICK's . Doc gets the mirada interior, and I get the wheels from E. I took the back seat out of Modoba and have the front and back seats from the mirada in there.... along with the headliner shell which will be propped up on my head for the trip! Wish a luck!lol

All went well and everyone seems happy. It was good to meet more fellow members. 16 mpg at 4.50 for premium....ouch! Way more fun than driving the van though!

it was about 420 by the way. Miles that is.

Had my first little road trip of the season today. My wife and daughter came along for a 175 mile trip through central Ohio amish country. Beautiful smooth winding roads, and good food. Feeling relaxed.

I've been mapping out a serious road trip for the future. It's very ambitious to say the least. The plan is to leave Ohio and visit friends and family around the country. The route would go through Montana, Yellowstone, Wyoming, Utah, down through the Rockies to L.A. and visit Willow Springs Raceway on track days and make a few laps. YEHAW! From there to the Grand Canyon and across the south to visit parents and siblings on the Atlantic coast. Next drive to Maine to a nice b@b in Poland Springs. The last leg would meander back home seeing Niagara Falls on the way. Would be cool to meet up with some members along the way. All told, it would be around 7800 miles. Modoba will have to have an overdrive for this trip. I'll need 3-4 weeks, but man, what a bucket list trip!

Bugger living out of America / Canada I miss out on all this cool stuff! Anyone coming down under?

BTW - We have roads and cars so let's use them. I am 42 years old and very few modern cars excite me enough to want to buy one. Just think my Cordoba is really cool piece of Chrysler history that spins my wheels! Gas is still pretty cheap!!!
