Can't wait top hear about your trips, Rockett! We just bought a 2006 RT Adventurous, and drove it home to Denver from St. Louis. We were absolutely immersed in research for months trying to decide what would be best for us...no kids, retired, and we've never had much time to travel til the past summer, when we took an 8-week road trip to Michigan and then all round New England. Loved it! We plan to do the same thing many times more, in addition to a bunch of shorty trips each year to the Colorado wilderness. The fact is, when we travel, we do like to stay sometimes in a nice Inn, B&B or hotel/motel, BUT don't want to have to lay out the money to stay in some pricey place every night. And we really prefer to eat breakfast and lunch on our own, so having a refrig and microwave, plus a counter on which to make sandwiches will be most welcome. Then we'll eat out for dinner when we feel like it, not because we have to... Our drive to Denver from St Louis was a dream. The RT Adventurous is solid on the road, very manageable!
