Salem Roadster show road trip

Loaded the burb with some friends and hit the highway today. Had about 80 invited cars and trucks with a few Task force and one AD panel on steroids. Burb rocked the roadtrip at 18 mpg and pulled the hills well loaded with 5 guys. The new inline and 700r4 is perfect.

That looks like a fun day. I haven't been on one of those gather up the show crew and head out to a show or swap meet group trips for years

The Burb hauls 8 and was used last summer as the swap meet bus! This year we just get there faster

Re: Salem Roadster show road trip

that burb is running an IFS and drive trane from a much newer GM, maybe 2000's. the track width looks good. lets see i have a 92 gmc k1500 and a spare AD cab, this is giving me bad idea's.

Re: Salem Roadster show road trip

No pic of the green AD 4WD panel that kept showing up in the background?? Lots of nice cars and trucks there.
