That is one beautiful video, and trip to remember years from now, and was wondering how many miles was this trip!

Thanks for sharing with all us at the forum.

Thanks!
You know when you are trying to find a total mileage using the trip odometer count... only to accidently 'reset' it? Yup that's what I did. My estimate was around 8kmiles / 12500+km

Great Video. And it was my pleasure to host the BCCC members as apart of the New Jersey Caravan. RIP Bob.

Now let's get ready for the 2019 National Caravan

It's four years away and already I have a lot of advance planning completed.

In case you are wondering I am the National Caravan Chairman for 2019. Let's GO!!!!

Thank you so much for this video which I thoroughly enjoyed

Man, how I wish I could drive my C5Z from here (Southern California) out to Bowling Green, KY! I have been to the museum but I had to drive to it in a rented 2010 Kia Soul....yuck!! At that time, this was the commercial for the car which shows the exact car I drove...



Edit...Figured out how to insert

The C5 is a great car to drive on a lengthy trip - read 'It has a trunk!'
You know what though? as good as the NCM is, it isn't the be all and end all. It's the journey and experiences to get there & back that is the best!
