About halfway through the trip I took our (then) little girl to see 'Cars,' and the whole image of folks travelling cross-country on Route 66 in the 50s made me think just how much less likely I was to have trouble in the 2000s in a 60s car with modern brakes and tires, so I put my foot that much deeper into it and *really* enjoyed the rest of the trip.
