    Roadtrip!!

    Im finally doing it, driving the E32 straight through to San Diego, picking up a couple friends in LA, over to Vegas for a day, back to LA to drop them off, then back up to San Fran and a few other places. Im taking the 101 back up to Oregon. Im starting to get tools and other stuff together, extra hoses and random parts. I did this last year but I was in a Toyota Tacoma so there were obviously no problems.. Anyone have any other ideas on what to take?

    Heres my 735i, I had the differential replaced too, from a 3.64 to a 3.15 for better mileage, now cruises at 70 at 2200 rpm.

          E32!!!!!!!!! <3

          Check the coolant system...? if the AC works? You will need it trust me.

          My AC in my E32 worked Perfect. Also my Temp Gauge was right in the midle even whent it's hot outside. The mechanical fan and AUX were Doing thier job so make sure they are Both in a good working Order.

          Other than that, i wish i would of done that before i sold it. Perfect Highway cruisers.

              Thanks! Yeah everything in it works, AC is cold, its getting a full inspection this week, oil change etc.. My temp gauge never goes past half either, should be a good trip.

                            I got done with my trip a few days ago, car did great, ended up driving to Pheonix, San Diego, San Fran and then up Highway 1, drove 3900 miles with no problems at all until I was 20 miles away from home and my waterpump blew..
