No I can't go. I googled hiway 550 Colorado. Looks like there's some great looking roads thru the country.
Looks more like an adventure than a ride.

Post a couple of pics of you don't mind

The Bird failed to launch. Rode it everyday before the ride, went to start it to go west and it decided to stay home.

Put in a new battery, 11.4 volts while cranking. Had spark but the plugs were dry. Had fuel pressure, 3 Bar as specked. No codes from tune ECU. Two weeks to get into the dealer, 2 1/2 hours away. Two weeks to get new fuel injectors. Are fuel injectors really only meant to last 60,000 miles? I'll know on Saturday if she decides to start.

Did do the trip in a cage following one of my brothers who flew in just for the ride. Had great weather.

That sucks, do post the results. As of yet I haven't heard of any injector failure. Maybe something to do with fuel sitting in the tank.

Damn that is a secenic part of the country.
Good luck with the t bird.
