Because you long for Adventure! Love taking risks! And KNOW that, by the
time you arrive home..you'll have the utmost confidence in your new purchase!
On the other hand......
Why you would drive across the southern Desert [hottest] and over the
Montezuma Grade on "I-8" [ ever hear of Monti's Revenge?? ggg] , then plan to stop
at the Source....where customers have Dissapeared!........gggg
Proceeding up I-5 where you're likely to get shot! 2 or 3 times!! gggg
Then up the "loneliest road in America" [when no one will stop to help you]
over the Grapevine into the "Valley of the Shadows of Death" [ giant Semi's going
90 miles an hour] where you will be bored to death.....ggg.....
Then thru Sacramento where it's "Asta la Vista Baby" at rush hour [ 12:01am
-11:59 pm] and then up the "Hellhole of the Universe" [ on a hot day] and
finally make it to Cool Shasta Dam......where you now concern yourself with
Mountains / Grades.....one after another. for a 1000 miles.....LOL!!
Then there's Portland / Seattle......GAG! LOL!
Have fun!
