Heading to N'awlins on Thursday - weather looks great... only a slight (30%) chance of showers on drive days, otherwise sunny and the in the 70's.

This will be the first loooong trip in the TR8 - nearly 600 miles! :driving:

We've made several 150-200 mile trips, but never anything like this, and it's running better than it ever has!

The luggage rack's mounted on the spare boot lid, and there's lots of room in the boot for an ice chest to bring home some crawfish and shrimp!

Laissez les bon temps rouler! :banana:

I dont eat crawfish but I am looking forward to some serious miles on my TR8 this summer. Make sure we get lots of pics of the 8 in all the locations it travels. I am going to try to make a photo journal of my travels this year. Will not be the same with out my puppy in my 8 as I drive around
