Nope ... not going to be mine.

How much over $4? In some spots in this area...gas is at $4.40....others are selling it for $4.10. Quite a difference in price, I'd say.... *shrugs*

Hey small, good to see you back!

That's AWESOME, Sixty8...very sweet! Congrats .

Woops...believe I should've posted this in the Member's Rides forum...can someone move this? Sorry .

Cadillac asks this question: When you turn your car on, does it return the favor? I may not have a Cadillac, but my Monte Carlos return the favor ... even when they are not on....

I know life "gets in the way" ... I'm not sure I could even make the entire trek ... but if I and a few others set up plans for a leisurely cruising tour of RT 66 from Chicagoland to California, are you interested in participating for all or part of the festivities? This would take place in the September/October 2009 timeframe. I know that is the fall with school and other activities back in session, but this timeframe is ideal in terms of "cooler" temps...we wouldn't be dealing with sweltering heat in the southern states.... And, we wouldn't be at the "peak" of the summer driving/vacation season.... We'd start in Chicagoland, with a Saturday gathering in the Elgin IL area, perhaps something similar to the Chitown Gathering we had this year on July 26 in Elgin: http://pics.projectmonte.com/album/12498 Then, we could start out that night...or early Sunday morning...and take a few days to get to CA so we could take in all we could along RT 66 without feeling too rushed. Heck, I'm not sure which MC I'd drive...perhaps the '76.... But, that aside, life is too short ... and I want to do this before it's "too late" ... and I'm curious to know if much interest is in doing something like this with a group of people and awesome vehicles.... I'm posting this initially to a few select boards...and, if interest is good and we get plans together, will open it up to others....

True. But, I always find it irritating that when something bad happens, gas prices shoot up within seconds...or in anticipation of the event. Yet, when something GOOD happens, it takes days/weeks for the gas prices to follow suit.... *shakes head*

Rushmore

OH my goodness! I, too, love this kind of thread! Woo hoo!!!!!

AMEN! Awesome pic, Sixty8. And, I was gone for about a month...and came back...for a little while, at least .

classic

I can handle 2 weeks or so . Oh, crud. I had written down King of Prussia...but, now that I think about it, that was the EXIT I took, right? Woops...sorry.

THAT has to be neat...to be able to listen to the morning news on an old fashioned radio! Mom and Dad have Dad's parents' old Victrola (sp?), but that's about it in that arena, as far as I know.....

Thanks! I take it you saw the thread then . LOL! I knew I didn't have it right, but wasn't sure ... woops! I can understand. I really am looking forward to seeing the wagon's progress!!!!
