Im driving to Phila. tonight and i decided making a trip through the great smokey mountains is well worth the adventure.
changed my oil and am ready to drive 1300+miles one way(26-2800 total in about 3-4 days. this should be exciting.
for reference if people do not know what Deal’s Gap is:

WELL! i just got back from Phila./hitting up the gap. just made it from phila.-west palm in 16 hours without stops(besides gas and i got DairyQueen) my body is fucked right now. but im glad. it was a great week. had a few nice milestones/experiences/etc.
HERE IS “Professional” pictures taken by [us129photos.com](http://us129photos.com)
[http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/OrderPage.aspx?pi=0QAK002Q000286&po=286&c=](http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/OrderPage.aspx?pi=0QAK002Q000286&po=286&c=)
if you click the right arrow fast enough its like watching me drive the dragon very slow like(tho im not driving slow at all really)
lol im now@11,900 and this was taken on tuesday
^^this is the “start” of deal’s gap that road up the hill in the backround is US129
on top of the mountain on the Tenn. side
Dam
facin the tenn. side
the last sections of deals gap(from S-N) are going down into Tenn.
and coming down the mountain my Current Consumption of gas was 99.9MPG
and i know the photos blow. but the light was terrible and my point and shoot digital elph can only do so much.
hope you enjoyed.
I HIGHLY recommend driving US129 and the surround byways. some of the best mountain runs you can have. do it mid week tho. i had barely any traffic and what i did have pulled over to let me pass.

yea. the whole car is completely stock minus some stuff i removed(vinyl on door frames and trim on center of doors to protect from door dings) and added like the rain guards/tints.
other than that this is a completely stock speed3
