Beautiful pics Mikmak......much of my state (Nebraska) and my part of the country (Midwest/The Great Plains) for that matter looks extremely similar to those first two shots
What would be ideal for folks traveling our great plains? Well I can't speak for everyone.....but for journeys across the deserted stretches of heartland (my first road trip will be west, up into the Rockies), I'd want something cozy & supremely comfortable with a plush ride and a fairly decent amt. of power on tap....which is why I have an affinity for certain old school Cadillacs.
Anything could concievably fill the bill though, from a FWD V6 powered Buick or Oldsmobile to a RWD V8 powered land yacht like the Chevrolet Caprice/Buick Roadmaster/Cadillac Fleetwood.
