I know, I know. This isn't officially 05 Mustang, but it does relate. LOL. And as you'll see in the pics, I'm driving a Mustang

Well, if you haven't heard yet, I was at that resort pictured in the test mule photos. With that said, the roads immediately near where the resorts are were way to busy to open up any car. There were lots of cops too (almost got stopped :notnice: ). But a little east of there near the Thermopolis area (home to natural hot springs ) is a place called Wind River Canyon. I have NEVER ever seen more beautiful roads to twist a car through. They were GORGEOUS. But don't take my word for it. I'll let the pics do the talking.



(Note the straw rapper I stuffed in the place above the air conditioning vents ..

Squeaks get really annoying when you're driving for hours on end ... :notnice: ... see I can relate this to the 05 Mustang after all. The 05 should have superior build quality so boo ya )

Even better if your motor breaks or your cars flips or something when you're doing it. Nobody will find you for days .. lol. Well, if you have a cell and you're not dead maybe.

Awesome pics, and awesome roads. Where did you say this was? Some day before I die I must go there with a V8 sports coupe and tickle the triple-digits.

I will be out there in sept. If you are there again, check the Grand Teton Scenic Byway. It runs basicall from Jackson to Yellowstone. Also a beautiful drive. LAst time out there, I rented a V6 convertible, dropped the top and drove the byway at sunset. IT was unbelievable. GM Convert, do it, that is one of the things I will definitely do with my Cobra after I get it. I also want to tour the California wine country in it.

Better yet, as Arnold told Devito in Twins ...

"Did you see me with the two wheels? You know I can teach you that!"

Yeah, it's all just a distant memory now though I only have these pics.
