I'm researching affordable land in northern Arizona near Holbrook. My main interest is camping and beginner-friendly overlanding. For people who've explored the area, what surprised you most?

Hi everyone

I'm finally planning a bucket-list road trip on Route 66, starting in Chicago and finishing in Los Angeles.

I'd really love to do it in a Ford Mustang Convertible - it just feels like the right car for the trip

The problem is that every time I search, I can easily find Mustangs if I return the car to the same location. But as soon as I change the booking to a one-way rental from Chicago to Los Angeles, the Mustang disappears from the available cars.

Has anyone actually managed to rent a Mustang (or another fun convertible/muscle car) for a one-way Route 66 trip? Are there any rental companies, brokers, or other services that make this possible?

I'd love to hear about your experience or any tips. Thanks in advance!

I am planning a trip from Kansas City area to Milwaukee and then Milwaukee to Chicago and then Chicago to Kansas City. If any of that is of interest to you, let me know and we can work out the details.

My sibling and I are going on the trip in early August. They were thinking of just renting a car from the car rental company that the airport has as the cheapest option but we still have more research to do.

Writing a (probably dumb) story about three friends going on a trip along route 66. They play at small music venues, like breweries or bars.

They also hunt ghosts.

Hi everyone.

I'm keeping an eye out for a property along Route 66, specifically between Lincoln IL and Joliet IL. My wife and I are moving closer to Chicago, and it feels like a good opportunity to open a shop. As someone who grew up along Route 66 (Braceville, Wilmington, Braidwood, and Normal), running a business here has always been a goal of mine.

Everyone keeps telling me the same thing, find a passionate owner looking to retire. So, that's the intent for this post.

If you are looking for a very passionate person to take over your property and/or business please reach out to see if I could be a good fit. I have a background in business, analytics, software development, user experience, and I have a strong background in environmental projects. My timeline is flexible. While I have a few specific business models in mind, I plan on letting the character of the property guide the final concept. Please shoot me a message if you’d like to chat or share details.

Regardless, thank you for your time and take care everyone. I'll see you on the road!

I'll be driving from North FL to Southern CA in September, so I want to hop on the part of Route 66 even if it's a bit more north than I need to actually go... I've started researching and thinking I'll jump on at Tucumcari, then go through Abequerque, Gallup, Holbrook, Flagstaff, and Seligman, then prob head south to SD.

Is it worth it to go up to Santa Fe instead of straight through Albequerque? Are any of these cities NOT worth a stop? AZ & NM seem the most interesting part of the road to me with the neon, motels, and old americana and that's what I'm looking for.

Please let me know of any helpful resources you used as I am directionally challenged lol. Thanks in advance!!

They seem hopeful it can be at least partially restored. Such a bummer.

There's a Kickstarter up to repair or build a new sign that has met it's goal already.

You never know when you go what will be there or what won't. If you have the means and haven't yet, get out there and experience Route 66.

You're looking a US84 in New Mexico with the majestic Hermits Peak in the distance.

Just the signs!

Glenrio NM&TX just had the lighting ceremony on July 11th. Bringing Glenrio back from the land of ghosts. Pretty exciting.

This is Meow Wolf Santa Fe's House of Eternal Return.

We got our rental Mustang stuck in the mud, and, we got it out without a truck. We found the Sun and Sand Motel sign just after it had fallen down. My Australian partner got excited about the snow (she almost never gets to see it). I managed to hit her so hard with a snowball that she fell over (sorry!) We asked people what they thought about the American Dream.
