Default Road trip

took my 92 and a blonde on a trip from central TX to northern NM and back. What a blast. The mountains were beautiful and she paid half the expenses. Took the top off in the mountains. Off the car that is! A little over 1,800 miles round trip. 23 miles a gallon with the 3.54 gears. Didn't use a drop of oil. Every corvette I saw on the road the driver was smiling and waiving. Life is good!
