1K miles, no problem...

On Friday I loaded up the fam in the Swagger Wagon (aka Custom Cruiser)and made the 1k mile journey to Tampa Florida. She performed flawlessly and I expect nothing less from her on the way back in a week. With 165k miles now on the clock. I am very pleased with her.

 

Thats great and congrats to the old girl. My 92 Roadie has 171K and I would take her to Alaska tomorrow if I needed too, same with my 93 Roadie with 148k. If maintained that 350 will easily run 250-300k, seen it happen many, many times.

 

I love your interiuor, now if your car was blue.........

Nice to hear you had a good trip....but wheres the pics?

 

what????....no road trip pictures???.....

 

Yeah, what Rev said

 

Sorry guys, I am not real good at remembering to take pictures. I will try and take some while here and on the way back.... I also need to really get the Swaggon to the tint guy. That sun is HOT.... It's like a greenhouse in there (the a/c does work but it doesn't reach the back very well).

 

im like that...id rather enjoy the moment than take a picture.

 

oh be quiet...no one asked you.....

 

Swagger..Welcome to TAMPA !!!
The sun is hot and the traffic is...(not even with a pg rating)... Anyway, hope you enjoyed the visit!!! Temp. here was 83F(for youse snowbirds and forigners), ever wonder why there is an A/C shop on EVERY corner???
Hope you have a swift and uneventful trip home!!!
And congrats on the sweet ride !!!
Later,
Bruce

 

What a nice way to enjoy the wagon, and All those looks of envy from the kids who are bouncing around in the big SUV's wondering why their mom didnt buy a cool car like yours.


I love to see a wagon on the interstate with a load of luggage in the rear, in the passing lane.



(anyone explored running ducting to the back seat like youd find in a late 90's-05 park avenue? so there are rear vents behind the front arm rest? here is a picture of a newer one. the mid 90's models were much smaller)

Thanks bstout. Yes the traffic is terrible and I wish the windows were tinted in the wagon. That will be the first thing I have done when I return this weekend.

In the passing lane I was. I love the higher speed limits south of the Ohio state line.

 

My brother and sister in law had a '93 White Roadmaster wagon and loved it, but their 5 kids were always complaining it was never cool in the back. I hate to say this and know that I risk expulsion by doing so, but they eventually traded it in on a Chrysler Town and Country mini van. (Oh no, I said the mv word.)

 

That is a very, very bad word in my house! I forbid my wife from even hinting at such a vehicle!

 

Here are some pics I took today here in Tampa, It's a little dirty but you guys begged for them.

 

i got a custom cruiser sedan!
