Big Olds Turning 100,000 Miles....Win Some Cookies by Guessing Where

Romulus, MI

Either way, be safe, and we'll see ya in Joplin!

 

Denise,I couldn't even to begin to guess where or when.But wherever you hit the 100k mark,you have to pull over and take a picture of the location and odometer and post it.Please be safe in reaching that mark!

 

Bourbon, MO. Put a little extra butter in my cookies, and drive safe!

 

Montrose, Colorado.

 

Smokin', better have another look at Big Olds' odometer, then git yer calculator out.

 

Pocahontas, IL

Also, I know its only about a half day of driving from joplin to stl but your more than welcome to stay here on your way home. We have an extra room all made up. Its pretty comfortable, ask Bob K aka "The Stairmaster" about it.

 

Directly above the center of the earth!!!

 

grinnell Iowa

 

Frenchtown MT probably not far enough but someone has to get MT in the game.
Chris

 

Going over Coalbank Pass; closest town is Silverton, Colorado.

 

I'm guessing Indy, unless someone already has. It's hard to guess though, since Denise has never really bought into the "shortest distance between two points" mentality.

Have a great trip!

 

It will happen somewhere between Bonneville and Spokane, so it depends on the route. If you go North, it will be Missoula MT, if you take the southern route, It'll be around Boise..

So I'm gonna go with Missoula MT as the most likely spot.

 

Udnudden, Minnebraska. Just as you pull off the interstate. But before you pull into the Fearless Farris truckstop to refuel. On a Tuesday evening, about 8:15. The radio reception will be very poor and all you'll be able to pick up is AM talk radio shows. And don't forget to check that wiper blade that's been chattering on you.

Oatmeal chocolate chip, if I had my druthers.

 

I'll stick with my guess, TYVM...

R-

 

I'll say Lamar, Missouri!

 

somewhere between Kalamazoo and Ann arbor

 

100,000!?! - man that's worn out - maybe if you hurry you can still trade him in under the cash for clunkers deal.

 

I've never had the cookies but I want some.
So my guess- Dunkirk, MT

 

I'm guessing in Grand Lake, Colorado on your return from the salt flats. You ARE going over Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park, aren't you? (You said you would on the 'ultimate road trip' thread one time.)

I'll send YOU a big box of cookies if you drive that road and don't think it is one of the greatest roads you've ever driven!

;o)

Marion, Indiana on the way home

 

I'll say right in Joplin MO. Say Hi to the gang under the shade at the north end of the pit. Hope to see you in Joploin.

 

It's gonna be Gunnison Baby, I can feel it in my bones.

Even if I'm out in the shop with the Olds jacked up like in Ferris Bueller adding the needed miles while you sleep !

Johnnie.

 

DAY 15:
Hwy US160 between Nutria and Pagosa Springs CO

Have a safe, fun trip

Richard

 

I'm guessing you will be back home when the odometer hits 100,000. HRP

 

Or driving around town in circles.

 

I predict that you'll have to curtail some part of your trip and skip some planned stops taking a shortcut to make up for lost time. By doing so you'll not have reached 100,000 by the time you get home.
Now comes the good part. Realizing you still have to put some miles on you bake some cookies and decide to come north to visit me and let Big Olds stay overnight at the sight of one of his first work thrashes (my shop). As you proceed north Big Olds will reach the magic 100,000 number between Flint and Bay City and by time you get here the reading will be around 100,030.
Now, if that happens I'll buy you a tank of gas after you spend the night with Sharon and I and have breakfast the next morning on your way home.

Flagg Ranch, 2 miles south of the southern park entrance. If you have the time, go into the park (north) a few more mile, pull off the road at Crawdad Crick, (lots of parking), and walk down the creek and go for a swim-the water is warmed by thermals, and you can swim behind the waterfall! I highly recommend it. And don't miss the big room at Jackson Lake Lodge. See how the Rockefellers lived.

 

was born in Frednoia. didn't know it was still there. waht about Buffalo and Benedict?

 

Cuba, MO

And you can drop the cookiesoff in St. Louis on the way home.

 

I always HATED these math problems in grade school, screw it, I'm just gonna go BUY some cookies! Have fun, I wanna do the two lane roads next !!
