Thx Dc for the reminder:tu:. I got the GPS, but having a hard time finding the sensors. NAPA here could not get them. May have to go to the dealer or maybe Jimbo might know where to pick them up.

Great photos DreamCast! You are paying about a dollar more than us here in Denver for fuel. Tulsa was about 70 cents less than us. Thanks for the picture of SkankCat. onecatnodog

Tom Thx Tom, but I'm sure I should be able to find them around here, If not , I'l yell for help:)
VERY NICE shots indeed DC ! Thanks for sharing ! (can't wait to see a few more ;-))
Wonderful to see y'all FINALLY took off that lid and enjoy riding with the Top DOWN :biggrin:....:tu:

Not being a very good math student but putting two and two together and comparing photos on this site that I have just recently found I have come to the conclusion that DreamCast and SKanKat have something to do with each other. Tinted side marker light, chrome grill treatment, the clue of removing the top from Dusti, I mean Pepe... How about a picture of both of you standing by the car.... I'm I close in my deduction? Thanks, (onecatnoclue)

I once did a trip from LA to San Francisco along that route and drove a little way each day and took 3 days to get there. Absolutely beautiful, one of the best scenic trips I've ever taken. 17 Mile drive and Big Sur are just priceless. Napa is great too :) One day, I'd love to take the Prowler out there and do the trip in it. Great photos and looks like a great time.

By the way, we even had the pleasure of meeting Larry and Julie and another ex-prowler owner Debbie,
just two weeks before DC and SkanKat were here. They were on their way to drop off a prowler trailer to
someone east of New Mexico. They were also very nice folks!

DC18, the pictures look great. Looks like the crew had a great time. The pic of SkanKat driving is cool. The black kat looks amazing in that shot with just the right amount of light. Can't miss the pic of the line of Prowlers. Those are always amazing pics. I really liked the pics of Gilmore and lunch. Reminds of stops along old 66. Doing a cruise like you all did with other owners is something I would love to do. Since I just got my Prowler a year ago, I obviously missed so many great cruises over the years.
I talked with Larry Lord yesterday over the phone to buy the Koni shocks and he mentioned the cruise up PCH 1. Again, the same words came out of his mouth that no pictures or words can describe the drive. You would have to drive it to really experience the moment and take it all in. Since I did 66 alone, I can only imagine how great the drive was with a bunch of other Prowler owners and great friends.

:tu: Those were great pics from your cruise.
Have had the good fortune to cover quite a bit of this in several different segments, but most every mile from just south of Carmel to just short of Washington state.
Some of the most beautiful scenery I've had the pleasure of in my lifetime.
Thanks for the shots :)
