Aww man. That is two hours away from me but I'm in a 1991 F150 right now and I don't want to push her that hard. I'll pay gas to anyone willing to car pool me
Makes me feel better. Only thing is my odometer doesn't have the 100,000 place it only goes to 99,000. It currently is at 76,000 but I'm guessing that is at least 176K of not 276K maybe 376K. It's got the inline 6 cylinder so I think I'll be fine. Might rent a car I'm going no matter whatI drove a 98 Silverado with almost 260,000 miles on it about 9 hours to Kentucky and back. I was nervous the whole way but I made it.
Only time I've ever been to VA was in Bristol last year to check out the casino. It sucks. But the wife and I had a good time in the antique stores. Most of which had at least some civil war memorabiliaI would go to the match in Winchester, Virginia, pickup the shot bullets and sell them to Yankee tourists for a Quarter.
My "low mileage" truck has 220k. My other work truck has 510k. They're both Toyota.Makes me feel better. Only thing is my odometer doesn't have the 100,000 place it only goes to 99,000.

One of my sons lives near Wichita and he's on the team. I wish he could come to more shoots because he's a crack shot.That's a 20 hour drive but SWMBO said ok.
You would definitely find good War Between the States memorabilia, because most of war on the east coast was fought there.Only time I've ever been to VA was in Bristol last year to check out the casino.

Escaped?! I'm holding on to this piece of ground for the rest of my life. Idk why anyone would want to leave these pretty green hillsYou would definitely find good War Between the States memorabilia, because most of war on the east coast was fought there.
I escaped from the Blue Ridge Mountains almost 50 years ago.
Because there's a whole world out there to see, did you grow up in the Hill's?Escaped?! I'm holding on to this piece of ground for the rest of my life. Idk why anyone would want to leave these pretty green hills
Yep. I've moved from one county over in my life. Been to Mexico onceBecause there's a whole world out there to see, did you grow up in the Hill's?
Ever heard of "bloody Madison" confederate renegades massacred the people of Madison CountyThere are a number of reasons why the War still fascinates people. It was the first "modern" war. In NC, not all the state held for the Confederacy, although it supplied the most troops of any state to the Confederate army. The Blue Ridge area was very divided and probably could be said to be "pro Union". The War in the Blue Ridge was like "Bleeding Kansas" with neighbor on neighbor settling old scores and out right lawlessness.
But I'll tell you now, it's very, very addictive.
Me, left when I was 17 joined the military and never looked back, but I have driven all of the Parkway and the Skyline Drive, it all looks the same.Yep. I've moved from one county over in my life. Been to Mexico once
Broadside says it all, if you're in NC, come on down!
