Default 48 states and 6 Canadian Provinces

Buddy of mine w/ his red 2015 3LT just accomplished this. Anyone else try for all lower 48 (like Dinah Shore recommended)?

Only 40 of the lower 48 in a Corvette, and I walked over the bridge(left my Corvette in the USA) into Canada.

Several years ago when I was a Miata Club of Hawaii member we received a request from an individual who was completing his quest for driving his Miata through all 50 states and Canadian Provinces to meet up with him on Oahu for a drive. Hawaii, if i remember correctly, was his last state to complete the tour. Yes, he shipped his car over for this.

Wake me up when a vette surpases, or even matches, Otto's record. Wait, sorry about that, the Vette driver would probably have to drive it in the rain at least a couple times, Zora forbid!.

I've driven in 49 states (Alaska is still waiting for me), and a half-dozen Provences are down.

Louisiana was my last CONUS state, and I conquered it in December, and again in January.

A couple of years ago, I was planning on getting Alaska(and North Dakota) added to my list along with three Canadian Provinces. I also wanted to get in a three day automobile ferry cruise from Bellingham, WA to Skagway, AK. When I discovered that I might not be able to either load my Z06 on the ferry, or, horrors, not be able to unload my Z06, because of tides causing steep ramp angles, I decided not to try it.

That was the prudent thing to do. Why take a chance on scraping it all up underneath.
