It was a tight squeeze. The mirrors cleared with about an inch to spare on each side.

Thanks for sharing your great pic, it brought back some great memories.
I was there in Sept. of 2012 and was in awe of the majestic redwoods.

That's a long way from Ohio, dadvan99.
We drove from CA to Niagara Falls Canada
across the upper US last May. It was an incredible trip.

It is definitely a drive worth taking...the Redwoods emit some sort of energy that I believe you can feel. My wife, daughter and I took the trip last spring....unfortunately only room for 2 in the vette so we had to use the DD.

It was a fun trip seeing the USA. Did 19 states, over 7250 miles. I did Route 66, up the Pacific Coast then across the upper US back to Cleveland.
