Wow. I'd love to go on more road trips. Cali is just way too far to drive though. But when I saw that Sebring with Vermont plates...daaaaaaamn.

My friend Lizzy last year, she drove from Nassau, Long Island to Montana. She didn't think it was gonna be a big deal...but halfway through Pennsylvania, I get a phone call from her, "OMG WHAT DID I GET MYSELF INTO?!"

If I ever go cross-country, I'd definitely bring a friend.

Sweet pics! I've driven from Florida to Massachusetts, that drive is looooooooooooooooooooooooong lol. I see it nothing like crosscountry though.

lol I love the driving on a lake

[Zdeuce4]

i was raised in Lacey wa, and moved to fkn tx.. trees here look like broccoli

[Jedi3]

looks great and thanks for the pics!

[star_deceiver]

I've made the drive to L.A. by myself before... took 29 hours, including 5 hours of sleep.

It would be nice if the lake froze again but it hasn't been cold enough here!

More pics will appear here.... as they get uploaded to photobucket, or I drive somewhere far away for something totally frivilous...

[Mariachi]

nice pics! I was born in Walla Walla Washington. I do miss it. lots of beautiful scenery.

Ughhhhh your pictures make me miss California SO BAD. I love the number of pictures you take though! Absolutely awesome.

I've driven from IL to CA and from CA to WI, separate trips. One was moving out there, one was moving back. I'm doing it again round trip again this summer to check out grad schools-- AND I'll be taking my first who has NEVER BEEN FARTHER WEST THAN MINNESOTA. I can't fathom it.

[star_deceiver]

Once people visit the west coast they never want to leave!!! In Canada, I've never been furter east then Winnipeg (sooo boring once you pass Calgary) and in the states I've never been further east then the Hoover Dam!!!

[Twenty]

I've been to a few of those places!

My parents and I usually do a giant road trip each summer, down the west coast of the US and back.

Random supercar in Medford,OR

Welcome to California

Finally we're out of the 65 zone (not that anyone - cops included, obeyed it)

Sweet!!!

Sacramento to L.A..... 600 miles of this

Gotta fill the tank

Cool... Vixen 21!!!

Good morning

Zoom zoom

Hey.... not flat....

Damn left lane bandits.... (hey the far right lane is open)

It's sort of a given....

Huntington Beach

Surfing competition

Enough time dillying at the beach, time to hit the concert

I found a spot!!!

Next day, on the way out

Here comes the flat again

Most expensive gas on the trip (but still cheaper then what we pay here)

Cool project!!!

A little warm for a car with no A/C.... meh, drive faster!!!

Hwy 99 about 0.5 miles north of the Oregon/Cali border. It's pitch black and clear sky (city dwellers have never seen this many stars before)

That's it, I am taking more pic during my own roadtrips.

[Ghost]

[star_deceiver]

You can never have enough pics!!!

a few were while driving on an icy curvy cloudy cliff road.

those are always fun!!!

I'm so confused is Ghost being sarcastic or not!

Seriously though, I always like trip pictures. Gets to show your car in different scenery and I just like to travel and see other parts of the country/world so I won't complain lol.

Man, you totally missed the entire central coast! However, since you took 5 all the way down, you really did miss all the fun Even 101 is a little prettier! Of course, being the scenery lover I am, I almost always take 1 at least one direction when going up to SF or down to LA.

Anyway, nice pictures! I used to have some from a road trip my mom and I took when we moved to CA but I lost them when my old computer crashed This summer I will take plenty!

[star_deceiver]

I've only done hwy 1 from San Fran to Malibu once and it was the middle of the night.

The 5 there and back was the fastest way... 4 day trip there - back

4907kms (3047mi) on 333.73L (88.289gal) - 6.8L/100kms (34.5mpg) at a total cost of $282.14US - not bad for all freeway at 75/80mph+!!! No A/C.... tires at 42psi... Toyota 0w20...

You should, when you have the time, take HWY 1 for a bit in the daytime. It's especially beautiful around Big Sur. It truly takes my breath away every time!

[star_deceiver]

Oh believe me... it's on the to-do list!!!

But in the meantime, I suppose I should hit the car wash... at some point... maybe... we'll see!

[Ghost]

im on 101! and what you mean sarcastic, Ringo?

[[ChaosweaveR]]

My car will probably look that nasty after this blizzard.

[Mariachi]

then its your turn to post pics up sir. lol

[valid]

Oh my. At least by being that dirty you know she's receiving lots of love in the form of driving!
