Michelle [Helen Geek] (michelle_reads_to_relax) | 63 comments Okay! Got it. I was imagining a tangerine orange like a nice lip gloss I saw the other day ... didn't realize we were looking at a Dodge. A Challenger fan eh?


message 1872: by Ian (new)

Ian (setaian) | 203 comments One of my dreams in life is to drive across the U.S. in an American muscle car...I'd like it to be a Dodge.


message 1873: by Michelle (new)

Michelle [Helen Geek] (michelle_reads_to_relax) | 63 comments Then do it. Although it is quite a ways to travel. Where would you start? What season? I've done the south route; S. CA through to GA. There are only a few states I haven't been. A Dodge wouldn't be my ride choice - but different strokes.


message 1874: by Ian (new)

Ian (setaian) | 203 comments I will do it, but to do it properly will cost a bit. I'd like to start in California @ San Francisco. Head up north maybe spend a few days in Mendocino County. Then down to San Diego via the Grand Canyon. From there I'll start driving East towards Georgia and then from South Carolina up through North Carolina towards Pennsylvania and New York finishing up in Boston.
I'm figuring I need about 3 months.

What car would you choose?

I did it when I moved. We drove from Pennsylvania to Colorado, and we zig zagged up and down the country hitting a bunch of different states! It was awesome.

Well we didn't go to CBP, but only because I had been a ton before, I used to live 2 hours from it, and my sister lives 20 minutes from it. I loved Wyoming and camping in Yellowstone the best. Hiking and the outdoors was my favorite part of the trip. I have a ton of pictures from that trip up on fb and my shutter fly website. It was awesome.
