I've made a few trips to NJ and MD in mine. All of them were at least 200 miles one way. Theres nothing like blasting up the highways with the t-tops off. I've had 3 passengers in my car for a 120 mile trip. Was one of the most fun times I've ever had in the car! T-tops off, highway, some good tunes, good times.

I went on a roadtrip in 87'...my wagon was relatively new then. I was young (22) and wanted a fun trip with 3 other friends of mine (22, 23, and 25). We went thru/ Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, and ended our trip in San Francisco. we had a ball going through the desert...and we hit EVERY liquor store we could find in every little mining town out there. There was never a time when we didn't have a case of beer or a bottle of tequeila or whiskey with us. Great times...

Met these girls in Arizona at a Bar (dont even remember the town...had a SMALL college in it)...after a long night of drinking I was pretty wasted. anyways...they want us to come back to their room (college girls)...so we get back to their place. I had probably already drank enough to kill me. Next thing we know I start taking shots...can't remember how many but it was some good ****. All I remember after that is waking up in the wagon at about 4 in the morning with 2 naked chicks on top of me (I was naked too) and they were sleeping. I think that I had a pretty good night before then...but I woke em' up and we hit it off again. Ah what a good time.

It was great to be young and single...I miss bar hoppin' these days.
Haven't done it in YEARS...I'm gettin too old.

Anyways....the wagon has been thru/ some times and I'm glad to still have it in the family.

Just logged 345,980 the other day...I was just trying to remember how many "great" miles and awesome rode trips the wagon has been through.

Dont think I ever cleaned the rear interior either....
