Your favorite road trip car ?

@Dart Frog What year is yours. I have a '92. She's my third B350. 360, the only time I call it a 5.9 is at NAPA, 4 speed TF and 3.91 gears. I've had it for 100,000 miles or so and over 10 years. I live in southern New Jersey and for 6 years drove 300 mile round trip every month to a client in Virginia beach. She always got me there and back, sometimes barely! Fun to drive especially on the highways and the Stop Light Gran Prix. Best part is at WOT it sounds like a quad! And yes I am that guy in the left lane! She's great fun on Delaware Route 1 at rush hour and the Sunday night run up the Jersey 'Pike! She effortlessly pulls the trailer with the Max on it. 75 MPH all the way home from Carlisle.
 
During the Seventies and early Eighties my 2 favorite rides were my '65 Imperial Crown Coupe and my '58 Mercedes 220S sedan. Both were comfort at high speed!

This looks like Hwy 97 just north of Weed, CA to me. Beautiful area.

My favorite road trip car was my 1990 Daytona base model. 2.5L 5-speed. The seats were so comfortable. Wasn't fast and didn't get amazing fuel economy, but very comfy.
Second to that was my dad's 1992 Dodge 2wd 3/4 Cummins with captains chairs. Nice truck that just hummed down the highway.
