Default The United States through my windshield... Road Trip!!!
Well I just came back from Spring Break and picking up my new ride (will post once stops raining and I get some pics) I wanted to get some pics on the trip but forgot. I took some pics along the way I thought some of you might enjoy the scenic views of the U.S.
The trip was 3227 miles from My Uncle’s house in Sacramento to my house in Chicago. It took 3 days.

Yeah, me to. My dad went to the states in 81' and drove from NYC to LA.

He said it was unforgetable......so, TT, let's make a plan and just go.

Maybe next year or something

Anybody else. More people=more money=better rental car

Are you kidding! Hahaha...maybe in Las Vegas or Beverly Hills they rent out cars like that (I don't think we have any RS4s in the U.S., but definitely the RS6), but everywhere else its junky GM or Ford stuff.

I'm in. Although I've driven over 1000 miles in the U.S. I have yet to see the South and West coast. A JW American road trip would be fucking awesome. 8)

No point messing about in the UK IMHO, we need to drive from North UK to Dover, then over to Calais and we can all turn up at TT's (as an example) or Dani's, picking up Thamar and Darkel on the way!
