Steep incline/decline on the northern end, the rest is all up, down and curvy. Pavement has dips here and there... Be careful! :biggrin:

Watch your temp if you have your AC on as well...
I don't think anything involving azbob's face should be near female genetalia... Even if its just on the packaging.

Cougar + Grapevine this time of year == fine.
Seriously.
It's just a big interstate (I-5) through the mountains north of LA. Steep uphills and downhills, but not as bad as, say, driving the hills of San Francisco. No big deal.

You'll have no issue with the Grapevine. Just obey speed limits. #1 speed trap in Cali. Done that trip numerous times. Ask the 160K on my cat.
hay when you are going down hill press the gas meter and watch what it says i did it last time i did it and it showed me that i was getting 100 miles per gallon

Well, it has been a while since I had my Cougar so I forgot that level of detail about the instrument cluster, except for the fact that it is a high number. By the way, Dev have you gotten that motor running yet??

Nope, I haven't finished it yet... the company that was doing the machine work on the lower end of the block has tried to screw me with several mechanical objects, and since I'm not into that ;), the whole thing isn't finished yet. Every opportunity that I get to drive down to SoCal (to work on it) I take... but there is a ton of work left to do :banghead:
