Gonna do the drive (was 1995 S6 problems/issues? AND auto shipping from VT to CO)

Huw: I was thinking Canada, but not the 17. The map makes it look pretty
straightforward if one bumps north from Burlington to Montreal and then down
the 401.

But I keep being drawn back to the map of New York. There seems to be real
potential for nice winding roads in northern part of that state,
particularly through the Adirondack mountains (where I've never been). That
stretch of the trip could be the only chance to have some real fun, as
Kansas is certain to be straight, flat and cruise control city.
