Yo dudes,
I just got home today from a 900mi+ road trip with my wife and our 3 dogs during which we took a bunch of FX pics. Hence I thought it a good time to start a picture thread for my FX. We drove the entire length of hwy 101 along the Oregon coast, from the Washington border to sunny California over the course of 3.5 days, stopping along the way for random viewpoints, tourist attractions, and camping (we slept in the back of the FX one night.) Anyway, I'll start the thread with the pretty vacation pics then continue with mods, customizations, etc as they occur.
Enjoy.
This was our first pit stop, just as we entered Washington, to let the dogs out. Luckily we weren't driving a truck otherwise parking may have been an issue: :tongue (2):
Viewpoint crossing back into Oregon on our way to Astoria (northernmost city in Oregon):
Bridge from Astoria, OR to Washington:
Cool old church on the southern WA border:
Random viewpoints along hwy 101:
The next few are from a viewpoint just north of Humbug State park, where we camped at the end of day two. We had to hang out here for a while so my wife could close a real estate deal before we headed out of cell phone reception land and to our camping spot so I had time to take some nice sunset shots:
The next morning... The FX was surprisingly comfortable for the two of us and our 3 (small) dogs. We had the rear seats folded forward and the front seats leaned back with all the headrests removed and a bunch of blankets under our sleeping bags for padding. I've definitely slept much worse while camping, that's for sure. One huge bonus was not waking up in a superheated tent from the morning sun. The FX roof is very adequately insulated in that respect.
The Prehistoric Museum in southern Oregon:
Cape Blanco, the western-most point in the contiguous United States. The pics really don't do this one justice at all. It is an amazing location. (The FX didn't move for these next three pics. Note the coastline...)
Lovely California, at last.
