Is it crazy to drive a newly purchased 914 1500 miles? If you were going to brave it, what would be the minimum list of things to check beforehand and what parts would you want with you? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

My last real vacation was in my 75 2.0L three years ago with my 8 year old grandson. We spent three weeks on the road with no destination in mind. Explored New Mexico, Arizona, southern Cal ( all the way to San Diego) and Vegas baby. 4403 miles, 134 galllons of gas. Only one break down. Points closed up in Tuscon. 5 minutes, a new set of points, and we were on our way. Sure wish I would known about you guys then.
Hey admin, what happend to the post on Joan's route? Might have been a big help to her. Good luck Joan, and may the road god's be with you |
