I'm thinking of making a trek to Hotlanta in a month or so. Anyone made that drive from the DFW area? I'd love to know of something to distract me from 500+ miles of blah on I-20. Or even better, If you'd like to caravan to Texarkana or nearby areas, let me know! Company always makes a long drive seem easier.
It's really not that bad of a drive. My folks live in Birmingham, which is only about 2 1/2 hours from Atlanta. I can be in B'ham in around 11 hours without really pushing it. Just watch out for the LA state troupers... they hunt in packs...
Why would you want to go by way of Texarkana? That's more boring than I-20 and then you have to go thru Arkansas! Just take I-20 and drive fast. You'll be there before you know it!
Hey juxt3r they have these new deals where you get in and they close the door and next thing ya know you are where you want to be! Found a picture of one, not sure they will catch on but them seem like a good alternative! ::Clown::

Seems like I've read about these in Popular Mechanics or something. If you hear more, let me know.Quote:

Next time you see those pink elephants, take some pictures! I've laways wanted one!!!!!!!!!! ::Clown::
I don't think taking the top off of an airplane flew over too well with passengers. The last time a Hawaiian airline did it they lost a stewardess. ::Clown::Quote:

Driven that road lot's of times, (I-20 that is... Texarkana is WAY out of the way). Once you get to Mississippi, it's not a bad drive. The roads are not so straight and flat. Once you get to Alabama, there are a few real curves.
