Default Going On A Trip

My dad and I are going on a trip next week out west. Hes been looking forward to it so I agreed to go. We are renting a Grand Marquis, joy, slow as he** I know. How do you think it'll do climbing a 14,200 mountian. Am I sighning my death warrent or will it make it?

Not all that bad in the power department, and decent torque. Ultra-comfy though! Excellent cars for long distance driving. Have fun!

In Corvallis, just about right between Eugene and Salem. Not far off I-5. WCBF is a mere 10 miles from here again this year.

Now THAT would be cool. If you come up I-5 at any point, drop me a line. I'll meet any member, any time. Even if it'* only for 10 minutes. We got good people here, and I'm determined to keep proving it to myself by meeting as many as possible.
