As good as Route 88 is, there are even better roads tucked away around the
state ... personally, my favorite is the loop north of Prescott that the car
mags always seem to use when they're in town for a proving grounds preview.
Frankly, if you're a car guy, Arizona is one of the best states you can live
in ... good roads, lots of sun.

The smoothness depends upon how recently it was graded ... two years ago, I
knocked off most of my exhaust system on this road during a drive one morning!
