So today my husband and I started our big summer Jeep tour. For the next 10 days we will be on (and probably off) the road in our 2011 Jeep Rubicon, exploring the midwest.
Our first target destination is Chicago, Illinois to take care of some family business. Since we both had to work a half day this morning, we were on the road by 2:00 p.m. and slowly headed west through the Finger Lakes of Upstate New York and then across the Southern Tier. Now, as of 11:30 p.m., we have settled in for the night in along the Ohio Turnpike in Fremont, Ohio. This will make for a short drive to the Windy City tomorrow.
I wish the Interstate system was more interesting but I'm looking forward to doing some exploring in the very near future.

Have a safe and fun trip!
I'm sorry you're stuck in Fremont. I used to live not more than 10 miles from where you are right now.
I'm also sorry you are stuck inside a Wrangler for that long. I drove 16 hours straight in mine, once. It was horrible.
This is our first big road trip in this Wrangler but we did three cross country trips in our '04 Wrangler X and it was enjoyable. Do you find the ride to be too bumpy +Chester Beltowski? The tires are loud on the pavement but I like that. 🙂
The loudness is a big factor, but mostly it's the stiff ride itself. My back tends to really ache after 2-3 hrs of driving my wrangler.
I’m so not a fan of the Interstates when I travel.
Safe travels!
