Default road trip for a z

hey everyone. brand new to the z world. i sold my 135 last year and needed a new summer ride. i've always loved z's so it was an obvious choice. i really wanted a 40th anniversary and found a perfect one in Tucson. it worked out well because my brother-in-law and i both have family in AZ so it was road trip time! the car was surprisingly comfortable. i drove all 1900+ miles without a problem. figured i'd share a couple snaps of the trip. enjoy. i tried to get pictures of all the state sings but i missed OK in the middle of the night, no one cares about IL and i live in WI so no reason for that one. love the car and glad to finally be a z owner

Congrats and awesome pics. I did a couple of 700 miles trips here recently and was surprised how comfy the Z can be on a long trip.

1900 miles? Geez, I don't think I could do it in the size, my butt would go numb and so would my long legs. That is a heck of alot of driving. WOW...Thanks for sharing the cool pics, and welcome to the family!

Thanks.
yeah, to be honest, we were not looking forward to it at all and even thought it was going to take us at least three days. but, once we got rolling, both of us were really surprised how comfortable it was. of course the perfect weather didn't hurt. until we got to shitty IL. the midwest is just horrible... i need to move. haha.
