No snow in MI??

Looks like a great trip so far other than the tire mishap... your next plan should be to do the route home while avoiding the interstates and enjoying the backroads

Made it to Traverse City Michigan today (no there is no snow) and have clocked 2,780 miles from California to here. The Boxster now has 216,035 miles on it.

Yep, AOS twice and not let's forget the top, windshield, headlights, oil cooler, brakes, coils, O2 sensors, MAF sensor, RMS, flywheel, and water pump.

Hope you're having a good time, Jäger. How many of those 216k are yours? That's amazing (take that VW)

DUDE!

Well that's getting your money's worth.

Say, since you're road tripping and taking pictures all throughout, why not contribute to the Boxster Picture Game Thread I just started up today? It might be very easy for you to accomplish some of the tasks since you're travelling all over the place.
