Thanks for the offer in Durango. We originally were coming thru there but we moved the trip up a couple weeks to go to Bristol So I think we will be staying further north for cooler weather If anything changes I'll PM you and stop by It is cool how interests cross. We used to bike tour and backpack quite a bit Tomahawk30- thanks for the tips on the museum and caves. Downtown- drove in on 31E and are in cave city now All you other guys thanks for chiming in and offering info There's only so much time. I wish we could fit it all in Doing this thread makes the trip so much more satisfying with all the camaraderie and advise from people We did a fair amount of driving today And made it to Corvette Museum A whole bunch of cool cars and history Well worth it, and it's only $10 per person to enter |
Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Chevyland, if you come through Fairfield let me know. I would love to meet you and see the truck. But if not we're only 45 minutes apart...Safe journey my friend.

This trip is a dream true. I am so envious, but I'm going to channel that envy, and visit a lot of the cool places you have mentioned.

Check out our hillbilly clothes dryer
Brad went in the hot tub last night. His shorts were still wet this morning Works pretty good once you start drivin |
Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Nice! Tackling the BIG tour! I've only done the historic tour and it was a pretty leisurely hike / climb. Let me know how the 4 mile one is!

Here's something that you can't do in our neck of the woods
Smoke in the restaurant Don't worry we took a table 2 over Remember, we have a hike to do🚶🏃🏻🚶🚶 |
Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Just a question, what sort of MPG are you getting outta that thing?
Do you know if it has stock rear ends, if so are you more or less limited to 60? We plan on doing the same thing up here in Canada, and I ant to try and figure out budget :lol: |

Not sure on gas mileage yet. Will update when we check it
Pretty sure differential is stock We could drive faster but we keep around 55-60 Just left the caves. I'll post up more on that later Snapped this goodie on the way out of there Red white and blue God bless America We're heading for The Kentucky Bourbon Trail 🇺🇸 |
Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
Intercepted Eric and Brad along their route today, talked trucks for a few minutes, and snapped a few pics with the 'Burb. Real nice guys with a nice truck! Best of luck on the rest of your trip, guys.

Ok everyone
The Mammouth cave was totally worth it We entered and descended down to 250-300' Then it's like you are walking thru underground slot canyons You come across waterfalls Then rock slides with boulders 5 times the size of a Chevy COE truck And an occasional waterfall to boot Some areas you look up thinking you will see stars, but There is only a solid sheet of rock A rock is just a rock Unless you use your imagination |

And a cool wolf leg
If I needed one I'd probably put Chevy trucks on it |
Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
I see you guys met in front of the hock shop. Is everything going alright? How's your money holding out? :lol:
After seeing (part of) Mammoth Cave can you better understand how the bottom of the Corvette museum dropped out? When in that region it's best not to jump up and down in the same place too long. Pogo sticks are banned! |
Re: 72 Super Roadtrip-Coast to Coast
It was my pleasure, Eric. Glad you made it while you could still see the country. I've not been to Mammoth cave yet, but I may need to put it a little higher on my bucket list after your review!
Ha, special-K, main street in Campbellsville is lined mostly with historic brick buildings that are in use or at least kept in decent shape - we were trying for a spot in front of the coffee shop (somewhat of a landmark for townsfolk and a real classy storefront) but somebody took one of the spots while we were trying to persuade our big beasts into position, and the next best spot was a few doors up in front of the pawn shop. |
