Historic Rt 66. Sounds like you will be too far north for much of it but…
Typical.
The only two I don’t see on your list that I would recommend are Yellowstone and Glacier national park. Both are rad if you are into the outdoors type stuff. Also avoid Kansas if you can, sucks ass to drive through and the cops are everywhere just waiting to pull you over. Cut through Nebraska instead, flat with nothing for miles but corn so while boring you can do 90mph all day and never see a cop.
I have been to Kansas a couple of times, it was pure ice driving across the state one time and 105 degrees the other time.
Updates???
Do you guys make it to the PA border???
sub’d
FUUUUUUUU. Replaced the battery before we left yesterday afternoon. Made it to Cleveland and spent some time there. Left, and the cluster started going ape shit, radio turned off, so we stopped at a gas station to turn the car off and check it out, it wouldn’t restart. We got a jump from some super gay dude with gang tats, tried driving again and got stuck on the side of an 8-lane highway. A trooper came up behind us, we told him our situation and he pulled a ballsy U-turn in the middle of traffic to give us a jump. He followed us to a gas station at the next exit, to make sure we made it, and thats about as far as the jump took us. Talked to Justin at Swiderski and he hooked us up with a TDI guru that is going to fix it for next to nothing. He’s about 20 minutes from our current location in Fremont, OH. We spent the night in this rest stop parking lot, hopefully we can find someone to give us a charge for a bit so we can make it 20 minutes to this guy’s house. We’re literally in the middle of nowhere, asked the girl at the gas station what there is to do around here… she responded by saying absolutely nothing. haha. So, we’re behind schedule as this guru can’t swap out the alternator until after 4PM, so this is just a day wasted.
Pics of Cleveland to come.
Holy shit that blows! Where did ya hang in Cleveland?
Making some serious progress lol
Naustra-fuckin-damus over here. lol
Might be time to abort your cross country trek when you can’t make it past Cleveland.
Justin felt super bad the rest of the day after your phone call, he kept saying we should have tested the alt. but I hope everything works out with the Guru.
Wow sorry to hear, I was only partially joking
Don’t give up! You might want to extend your trip another month though…
So is the alt fixed?
Bringing bikes was a good idea!
man…even my dsm’s have made multiple trips to Arkansas
always a good time being broke down in another city. i got to see memphis that way lol. never would have stopped otherwise…
Are you going to see any car related sites? In Bowling Green, KY, there is the Corvette Museum, and right next to it is a huge classic car dealership. About 15-20 minutes away are some underground cavern/waterways that they give tours through. I saw the brochures in our hotel last year.
Here is the website for the caves:
Looks cool as hell!
OMG priceless. I cannot help but laugh and I hope you guys can too. Good luck with the rest of the trip!
Told ya
Great pics. Hope the car holds up the rest of the trip.
