Well, my family and I are going to Sacramento, California for a 4-5 day vacation on the 15th. Since I have finals at school that day, I will be driving my classic up north from Los Angeles on Friday. I will be taking my brother with me. It is roughly 365-380 miles to Sacramento from Los Angeles. I will be driving my car straight across the Central Valley. I might take the coastal route on the way back. Fuel costs will be rougly $100-120 at $4 a gallon. My brother and I are going to split the gas price. He and I will take a lot of pictures of our fun road trip for your enjoyment. It is not every day that a person drives an 80s car that far. At 119,000 miles, the car is running excellent. I just have to get my tires checked and make sure all fluids are topped off. I should not have a problem getting there. But just in case, I have triple AAA. And no, I will be not flooring my car up to 75mph up the steep Grapevine like I used to do when I was younger. I can't believe this little K has been my chief transportation vehicle for 5 years and 67,000 miles.
