I was living in Winnipeg at the time, but still a real long haul, over 5200 miles if memory serves. Had zero problems with the Dart, one of the best vacations I have ever had, except for my wife at the time. She tried really hard to make me miserable, no chance, way too much eye candy and fantastic people.And you drove from Alberta to get to Milwaukee! LOL That's a long haul for sure.
(and then all the way back home)
