          it was fine, i was a little nervous but it has a lot of recent work/upgrades. u joint on the steering column is tight, and the drivers side rear wheel bearing is getting noisy, also the eibach rear sway needs some grease. it was a great cross country car. my previous two trips were done in a toyota corolla, which has been replaced with a mini cooper s, might be taking the cooper on the same trip next summer if i fly home to pick it up!!

                  ^ I am with you. It was nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be driving through that state.

                      Done the drive between Michigan and Colorado a bunch of times. I gotta say, Kansas is just fine. It's OHIO that sucks (especially when coming back from down south)!

                        Awesome Trip! Good choice on bringing bikes. I love road trips. Is your car a swapped car?

                        My last one was Boston to Robbinsville, NC (Tail of the dragon) in 17 hours

                                Looks like a very fun trip! I like your car a lot too...

                                I'm planning to do something similar within the next few years.
