Thanks Panther. I like to travel the old backroads. If you really want to see the US, take them. On interstate, it's pretty much the same old thing over and over and dodging the semi trucks who think they own the road. When I take my monthly trip to Memphis, I take old US 70/79 and enjoy the trip even when I get in behind some farmer's John Deere.

If you ever plan to motor west,
Travel my way, take the highway that is best.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.

It winds from chicago to la,
More than two thousand miles all the way.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.

Now you go through saint looey
Joplin, missouri,
And oklahoma city is mighty pretty.
You see amarillo,
Gallup, new mexico,
Flagstaff, arizona.
Don't forget winona,
Kingman, barstow, san bernandino.

Won't you get hip to this timely tip:
When you make that california trip
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.

Won't you get hip to this timely tip:
When you make that california trip
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.
Get your kicks on route sixty-six.

Ditto Back Rods, Willy. My 57 pickup, due to the gearing doesn't really like 65-70 mph......but 45-50? Yeh, all day long!!!
