This past weekend I went up to visit friends in SLO (San Luis Obispo)... I took my time returning back to the hustle and bustle of my home (in Orange County), and stopped in Pismo Beach and Santa Barbara. I also stopped a little ways North of Santa Barbara at a rest stop called "Vista Point" and while there I snapped a few pictures of the Neon on this clear, sunny, wonderful California winter day...

Enjoy!

btw, for any of you who have not taken the pleasure of driving on the 101, its a treat. Once you get past LA and start heading north, its very open. I averaged about 85 mph on the entire journey (hit 105 at one point), yet thanks to the mtx the neon pulled nearly 35 mpg on the trip!

^^I averaged high 30's in both of my SXTs. Of course, that didn't come near to the low-40's I got in my 1GN. And we won't mention the mid-20's in the SRT...
