This is easy one for me.

James Dean and I would be driving across California in his Porsche 550
Spyder. Though, I would definitely warn him it would be best to stay in our
lane. I think he would be a kick ass character to hang with.

Another person? Matthew Mcconaughey and Willie Nelson (not for reasons of
marijuana) in Willie's bus, touring the Rockies... with some women of
course. I read a Men's Health magazine hosted by Mat.. he seems like a
pretty kick ass guy. The Bus would be fueld with Willies biofuel of course.
No bongo drums would be allowed on the bus!

Lastly, your mom!

Easy decision. If it could only be one person, it would be my wife. We've
been road tripping around North American and parts of Europe for 42 years.
If I could take more people, it would be our friends, Betty & Steve. We've
often traveled together and it is just one laugh after another and nothing
is a problem. Getting lost is just a new adventure.

As for what to take, a cooler loaded with some cheese, fruit, good bread,
and a bottle of wine for those lunches in the oddest places.

The car would be a full sized such as an Avalon, Lexus, Lucerne.

Oh, and a big bag of money.

I'd like to take JoeSpareBedroom on a road trip to the La Brea tar pits. I'd
come back. He wouldn't.

She'd be laughing, all right. Laughing AT your minuscule boyhood.

Betty.

I'd take a RV bus and tour the country for a couple years at a
leisurely pace. Who would I bring back for this? My parents, for what
I would hope for most to be obvious reasons.

I saw a '98 Corvette the other day, with a removable roof like the one in
my Supra. So, unless I could get a brand-new 98 Supra twin turbo sport
roof, I'd go with the Corvette, or one of my other 'dream' cars: a Ford
GT40, a 1972 Dino Ferrari (the owner of Yankee Candle Co. has one with
73,000 miles on it) or a Kelmark GT. Yup, a Kelmark...

(it's a Volkswagen chassis, but you can 'adapt' other engines into it.
Maybe a 4A-GE 'hachiroku' engine would fit nicely...)

I'd say the Dino would be the #1 choice.

And I'd take the dog I had 15 years ago. Best dog I ever had. And if the
kids would fit, too, maybe them.
