    My Arabian Nissan Patrol 1997 Y60 (GQ)

    You sold the last one? Now I need to unsubscribe. Why, why, why? Why did you sell that last one? Well, I will subscribe back if the new one meets the standards of the last one. But congrats on your new purchase and looking forward to seeing pics and the build.

    I was going through my pictures and saw this picture and remembered why I took a picture of it. So, I wish to share this story and ask other people's experience about such an encounter on the freeway. I was driving on a 2 lane road in SD when I came up behind this RV. We were on a no passing...

    So, my trip has been really great and successful as I leave Dallas tomorrow for 4 hours 30 minutes drive home to resume work as from Monday. It has been a great adventure on this trip.

    Today, I drove through KS, OK and spending the night in Dallas. Nice and simple drive, though halfway into the 7 hours journey there was a 6 miles backup on the freeway (I-35) because of an accident. My GPS was smart enough to show me alternative routes and I turned my CB radio on to get good...

    Yesterday, drove through ND, SD, MO, NE and KS, where I spent the night. Not much but enjoying the road and driving with traffic. But stopped in Sioux Falls, SD at this very popular park in SD. Took a 30 minutes break and walked around and it was time to be on the road again.

    Oh no. I just passed by it. I drove a total of about 10 hours on that day. When I was doing my research before the trip, I found out that this park with Custer park has the same kind of animals, so, since I was limited on time, I did not stop at Roosevelt National Park. But I was very glad...

    I finally get on a real highway, I-94, which runs across North Dakota. So, I basically drove the whole length of North Dakota today. And how would you drive through North Dakota without stopping to say Hi to Salem Sue? So, I stopped by and said Hi.

    I left the park and hit the road. And soon, I was in Montana. Wow. What a picturesque landscape. Then I get to this point where I feel as if all other cars have decided to leave me alone on the freeway. No cars behind me and none infront of me or coming the opposite way. I check my GPS to make...

    Did my 10 hours drive today to get to Minnesota. I passed through Wyoming to see the Devil's Tower and then went through Montana, and through North Dakota. What a drive and I have been on some really isolated roads and cities that I even felt scared going through. And many a times, I have been...

    And since the annual Bikers rally which takes place in Sturgis is in 10 days, the town is already growing with a lot of bikers coming in. As you guys know, the Full Throttle Saloon was burnt down last year. This year they bought a saloon and renovating this new location which will open in 10...

    From there, I hit the road for Deadwood, SD. And have to go to main street to visit Saloon number 10, where Wild Bill Kickok was shot dead. And I was lucky to watch a little acting about it.

    When you leave the park, it is wise to hit highway 87, which is the Needles Highway. Another fun drive with twists and then going through a very tight tunnel that you can touch the walls as you go through and when you come out, there is the Needle's Eye. Great place where people stop for pics...

    From here, I drove to Custer State Park. Make sure to drive on 16A, which is a scenic and very windy road. Really fun to drive with a lot of sharp turns and switchbacks which can get you dizzy. I drove on the Wild life loop to see some Bison. Large herds. One of these guys came up to me and...
