any epic trips? adventures? stories?
Mid feb, i am delivering a car to toronto, return journey picking up a 58 mk1 3.4 jag from south dakota
what sights to see? I am probably buying a drone to do some filming
i sold my truck and trailer...currently no trailer, so going with an enclosed, and my tow vehicle is a 2000 ford 7.3 td dually ambulance.....not good!
weather fears, will the ambulance make it, i am looking at about 6000 miles
any tips on anything interesting to see?...will hammer it to toronto, take time on return journey, will cross to usa at bellingham, cross back to canada at niagra crossing

In SD, worth a look at Badlands National Park and Crazy Horse mem, and Mt Rushmore. Custer has some interesting scenery as well.
Deadwood in the Black Hills is a brilliant place, just how you would expect and old western town to look. Big western and native american history fan, so a visits to Wild Bill's saloon where he was gunned down by McCall was exciting for me. Wanted to cross into Montana to see the Custer battlefield, but didn't have enough time.

Re: Road Trips
Trip just put back a month which is great, saves buying an enclosed, buyer just didn't want salt on rd
Badlands was brilliant will stop there again
Rushmore good and funny how they block as many views as possible unless u pay at the car park at the top of the road good old boys manning the posts
Delay lets me really plan this
I'm only a day from Montana so will have a look for some spots there on way back
First visit there was lake flathead and kslisprll

One of the US rock stations I used to listen to on my phone was from some town in the Flathead valley.
Going by the placename and that all I knew that it was in either Montana or Wyoming I pictured the place as some dreary flat desolate semi desert or prairie. When I got up enough interest to google image the place I found out that I could not have been more wrong.
The area looks magnificent!

Vegas is vastly overrated.
