4th roadtrip

[ern-diz]

Absolutely enjoy the pics you share of your cool road trips; thanks. 1600+ miles on her and she doesn't even have plates yet! Love it.

Planning a Sequoia National Park weekend run as a late birthday adventure for myself next week. Wish I could take the Yaris and get some epic shots of a tiny car next to enormous trees, but given the faq'n airbag recall, I can't trust it, so it's the wife's Accord being called for duty. It's just not right!

Car is 6 months old now with ~6k miles ... all road trips.

I never put the plate on any of my cars for as long as I can ... prefer the plateless look ... as long as the car looks new, there's no reason for a cop to pull me over for it ... been doing it for years.


Haven't been to sequoia/ Kings Canyon since the 90s ... before digital cameras existed so I have no pics.

Same here. Exactly why I'm itching to get back.

Man, that's paranoid.

I wouldn't call it paranoid. California is listed as one of the red states on the recall notice based on the fluctuating heat and humidity. At 9 yrs old, the car is well within the range of there being a very real chance of someone being injured if sitting in that seat when the airbag deploys. If we have a second car to use, I look at it as being safe rather than sorry. What would be the benefit of taking the risk?
