Hey,
I was just wondering how many of you MCOers have traveled out of state in you MINI. I have yet to do it, but this summer before I move From Colorado to Florida, I am planning a trip to las vegas. List all of the states you have been to.

      i guess it still counts if you bought your MINI in another state and drove it home, right?

      in that case:

      Missouri
      Iowa
      Nebraska
      Colorado

      only local for now ... WA, OR, ID, BC

      ... but the coast-to-coast this summer should fatten the list up a bit (it should start to look more like my classic list!) ....

      and hey, Ants! ... how did you get all the way to WA without hitting anything in between?!

      Sorry, I have to laugh as I live in Massachusetts. You can't drive more than 2 hours from anywhere in this state and still be in the state (RI is worse though...there, it's 45 minutes). I go grocery shopping in another state.

      So...NH, CT, NY, RI, VT, ME. And this is just because I've only done daily driving duty thus far. Later this month I'm venturing further down the east coast and will hit NJ, DE and maybe MD/DC/VA.

      She's been to Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan outside of her home in Colorado. This summer we'll add New Mexico, Arizona and California. I might even throw a trip to Wyoming into the mix just for some open, no traffic roads where speed is barely enforced.

      Picked up my DS/W S in Germany in June 02. She's been to Germany, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Italy, and Slovenia. When she got to the USA, she's been to VA, MD, DC, NC, and now TN. My wife's MINI has only been to VA, MD, DC, NC, TN and KY.

      Purchased in TN; based in AR, and just completed trip from Little Rock to Los Angeles and back, a few weeks ago. I-40 & Rte. 66 through NM and AZ were a lot of fun in our MCS!

      L'il Red lives in N.H and commutes daily to work in Mass. She's taken us shopping in Maine and on trips across Vt. to visit friends in Albany, N.Y. and through Ct., and N.J. to visit our son in Pa.
      So eight states overall.

      I am located in beautiful unincorporated Adams County. I am closer to Thornton than anywhere else, around where I-25 and US 36 meet up.

      Bruce, welcome to MCO! :smile:

      I purchased my MINI at Westchester as well. I loved working with Lori. I had a somewhat shorter road trip though.
