Ron:
Let me explain.
The Admiral would LOVE to go on such a trip. She has been 40 miles offshore in a 28 foot boat with 12 foot waves, and other great adventures.
But she is quick to point out that "her" Taurus is NOT an SUV and still looks like it came off the showroom floor. She is concerned that any adventures on non paved roads would not be conducive to keeping "Her" Taurus shiny and scratch free.
That road looked pretty rugged. Was it as rugged as it looked? Too rugged for conventional cars?
