What would you want to take with you on the ultimate road trip,if you could make one?
If you got to make the ultimate road trip (and money, geographic location of the trip and the make / model of the desired car you'd most want to use wasn't a limitation), what things or person/s would you most want to take with you and please say why.
You can take any high profile person/s you admire, irrespective whether anyone named is living or is presently deceased.

Pacific Coast Highway - One of the most gorgeous drives in the world.
Enzo - Umm...it's an Enzo.
Jessica Alba - Do you really have to ask?
Lots of Gatorade - Do you really have to ask?

Re: What would you want to take with you on the ultimate road trip,if you could make
This could turn out to be a great thread!!
With the money, geography and dream car part out of the way......
I would take my wife. While she's a horrible navigator, we just bought a Garmin and that free her up to "help" in other ways...
Having seen WAY too many horror movies in my time I would have to take along some sort of firearm with LOTS of ammo.
Digital Camera with lots of MB's of memory.
Either a satellite radio or my iPod to help with the soundtrack.
All things being equal and I know this wasn't part of the question, but, I would have to make the trip in one of the new Year One Trans Ams...preferrably the higher horsepower one!

Re: What would you want to take with you on the ultimate road trip,if you could make
On Top Gear (Season 10 episode 1) they went in search of the ultimate driving road. I think they ended up in Switzerland. So if I could go anywhere, I would choose that place.
Here in the US, I would head up PCH. Some of the roads around Big Sur/Monterey are incredible.
I would probably take my 2006 Mustang GT or the new Corvette ZR1.

Original Shelby Cobra 427
No one else in the car
An unlimited free gas card (supplied to me by the oil companies)
A cross country trip (and back), where I could take any route I wanted, stop any time I wanted, and immunity from the police.

Re: What would you want to take with you on the ultimate road trip,if you could make
For me, i'd take the new ZR1 or the International CXT Truck, both detailed to the hilt of course. I'd have a bajillion dollars with me, my 9mil strapped in the consoles, Jessica Alba in the passenger seat. Ipods, cameras, Garmin.
The car would have to have an awesome stereo. If I took the truck, i'd have George Strait in the bed playing live, if the car, me and Jessica Alba would be doing to many things to listen to music

I would be riding a Honda 650R with Natalie Portman on the back. Trip would be through the mountains and it would be a bare bones vacation. A DSLR is a must as well.
