Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas, and oil, we have decided to turn off the light at the end of the tunnel. We apologize for any inconvenience.

That looks like an awesome trip. But seriously, did someone ride in the back? It will make me leave my rear seat in if that is the case.

driving glacier park in a fiat is on my bucket list. Several years ago, did a drive from Spokane to Edmonton. hit lake louise on the way up and glacier park on the way back. drove it in a volvo turbowagon. pretty rough roads once i got up into the mountains. scenery was nothing short of breath-taking.

Lol... nope, with a rollbar, sitting in the back seat is "challenging" :shock: . There was a second (non-interesting) vehicle with more of her family.

Hi Kingme, :P
That was some beautiful scenery. I look forward to days like that.
Thanks for sharing!
It looks like you have the wind screen on the roll bar. Is that one of mine?
If so, how do you like it and how is it holding up?

My wife and I drove from Okotos south of Calgary to Bragg Creek last weekend..and it was one of the most awsome drives ever. Incredible road and country scenery.
