Yessssssss “out for a drive for no other reason to drive”
Sure sounds like we need an “EveryDay Driver Best Road Ever Meetup Adventure” in 2024!
Sign me up right now.
Completely agree with such drives when you have a great car.. BUT! I would advise a few things.. 1. tire repair kit. Aka plugs and electric pump. 2. 5 to 10 gal portable gas. Just in case. 3.AAA membership (make this number 1) 4.toilet paper and or wipes. Just in case 5.never forget phone charging wires. Those 5 things are a must!!! Oh and *some* cash on hand $200 max.
The reason Todd loves that Lotus is pretty much the same reason I love to ride motorcycles. Yes it's a compromise in a lot of ways and you make sacrifices when you choose it, especially with long trips, but there's absolutely nothing like the experience.
Exactly, sacrifice starts by getting into the car over these wide sills with the roof attached.
Comparison with a motorcycle is spot on regarding practicability.
The roads could be even narrower and twistier for that little lotus. For the c8 they are fine.
100%. We could use more 4-wheeled “motorcycles”. The Elise seems the last of its kind.
Exactly why I love my Miata
miata and ariel atom 4? @@JeremyHartson2000
From May 4 2022 until early April 2023 I only took my car to work 11 times. Usually when it's icy. This is in the PNW. My car a Corvette. I'm on 2 months without taking my car now.
I can't afford either of these cars, but I have a sportbike and roads like this is what we live for
Live in the SoCal area. Took my new to me MK7.5 Golf GTI Autobahn 6MT up Angeles Crest Highway today for the first time. It was such a fantastic experience getting to drive to the base of a road a little bit and then getting to drive on said fun road. What Paul and Todd are saying is 1000% true. Loved every second of it.
Hi, from Japan!! I always feel like I have done the trips with you guys. I’m always drawn into your trips when you release new trip videos. I’m always impressed when you are impressed!! I always smile when you are smiling!! Thank you!!
Thrilled to know you feel like you're with us! Thanks for watching!
Best day at work ever.
I loved seeing this video. I live in WA State and I have driven many of the roads of the western states and this was on my list but hadn't done it yet. I need to make a list of some of my favorite roads from different states. I drive to NM every year and make sure that I drive new ways and sections of roads. Thanks for sharing this one. Some of my favorites from Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. .
Colorado - SR139 from Langley, CO to Loma, CO
Colorado - SR133 from Carbondale, CO to Hotchkiss, CO
Colorado - SR92 from Hotchkiss, CO to Sapinero, CO
New Mexico - SR152 from Caballo, NM to San Lorenzo, NM
New Mexico - US180 from Alma, NM to Alpine, AZ
Arizona - US191 from Alpine, AZ to Morenci, AZ
Arizona - US60 from Globe, AZ to Show Low, AZ
I could list 20 more but I'll leave it here for now!
Please list 20 more 😂

So there are some additional ones for you to explore. I've driven every my 2009 Corolla to every state so I've drive some amazing roads! This is just a sample!
It's a little cruel to post this in the winter while Montana is getting slammed with the first snow and that pass is definitively closed for the season. But I'm putting a pin in it. That's a long drive in a Miata from Central WA, but maybe someday. It's too bad they don't keep these roads open, but only to sports cars on Blizzaks. Miata gets its first set of Blizzaks the day after tomorrow. I shall be unstoppable.
It is 10000% worth it to drive for a drive. I do it all the time just for the experience and a few good pictures. I love these road trip stories.
This is such a great video. 1. Go for a drive, JUST for the sake of going for a drive. 2. Drive said road in both directions, as many times as you can 3. Repeat at a later date. Love it!!!
This video ABSOLUTELY defines what it means to be a car person! It’s therapeutic and epic to watch! Thank you for this gift! Love it!
Thrilled that it resonated with you like this - it's what we hope for! Glad to have you watching!
We have some pretty amazing roads in Arizona, and yes...I will drive up north in the morning, have lunch in Prescott, and head back on 89 down the hill (and through Yarnell, and Peeples Valley) just to drive the road. When I get back to the urban sprawl of Phoenix, I am refreshed and at peace.
One that I love that’s always within 30 min of me is the road up mt lemmon out of Tucson, just such a terrific road - though you do need to time it so late night/really early morning is the best time to not get stuck behind traffic
@@GearHead_MediaI’ve always wondered what that road is like as a fun road. I grew up in Tucson and went to Boy Scout camp up there as a kid every year. Moved away before I owned a fun car so I never really got to experience it in the way we do for our shoots. Another fun one, albeit short and in a neighborhood is Roller Coaster Rd on the north end of town. It’s best going from the Oracle Rd side abs dropping down to La Canada.
The Rocky Mountain range is my birth place and where I live. Growing up taking my 1991 Mustang 5.0 up little cottonwood and big cottonwood canyon in northern Utah and currently live in southern Utah, cedar city driving my 2017 Mustang GT performance. These Rocky Mountains are where the greatest joys in life start and they never end as a driver. I’m heading to Cody WY this next late spring after watching this. Burns like a passion. Thanks for sharing guys!!
Those giggles is how I spend most of my weekends in the Driftless Region in Wisconsin. The views aren't as epic, but the corners never end. Hope you check out that area one day. I would gladly join in my 88 Pontiac Fiero GT.
I'm on those same roads often. Great drives.
I want your car! LOL 😂
Bob, never been to driftless region. Any suggestions on roads or city area to start?
@@aaronpuchalla5261 Sorry, I forgot to respond. So here is how it works. Most of the Driftless area is in Wisconsin. There are bits in IL, IA, and MN as well but I am not familiar with those areas so everything I will say applies to Wisconsin. The best areas are West and South of I-90 all the way to the mississippi river to the west, and Wisconsin Rt 18 to the south. The roads vary in curvyness depending on the road type. From least curvy to most: Interstates, US Routes, State Numbered Routes, County Single Letter Roads, County Double Letter Roads. the Biggest town in the area is LaCrosse which is a beautiful area. We stayed in Prarie Du Chien last year and that was great too. For a first drive, I suggest driving on Wisconsin 131 anywhere between Tomah and The Wisconsin River near Prarie Du Chien. When you see a Single or Double lettered county rd peel off in to one of the valleys, give it a try. to make the process easier, I use an app called Kurviger to help make a fun route. Here is one of my faviorite 1 day drives. kurv.gr/qqPLr. Gays Mills is a nice area and has a ton of apple orchards. There are a ton of winery's closer to the mississippi. And there are a ton of state parks dotted around the area. There is canoeing, kayaking, tubing on the kickapoo and mississippi. The house on the rock is always an interesting stop. This route was a two day trip. kurv.gr/StCK9. And the area is absolutely beautiful in the fall. I hope you get a chance to try it. I love it so much I plan on moving there to retire in a few years.
Worked in Cooke City, MT this summer, (pop. 75). In order to go anywhere, you take either Chief Joseph, Beartooth, or through Yellowstone. Such tough decisions we had to make. Wife held the "Oh Jesus" handle the whole time but then she wanted to drive. Lots of cows and occasional moose to be wary of though.
I live for these road trip videos. Thank you, and keep them coming!
Lots more to come, glad you like them!
I did my first big road trip because of these videos. I didn’t bring my mustang GT, but I did have the family and 11 days in the road through the mountains and national parks and 8 states and 3,500 miles later we were home. No matter what you drive, get out there. It’s beautiful. The best part, I drove these roads they are on. It’s the best thing you will ever do.
@@EverydayDrivercars and coffee to meet you both. We will all come across state lines to drive these roads
@@bennyang8049what roads/highway thy are?
I travelled this road back in 1984 on a family vacation. I was 12 at the time riding in our 1979 AMC Eagle. I remember it starting to sputter at the top, but we made it over and down into Montana. It was quite a memory! Watching this video makes me want to go back in my 1991 300ZX TT and do it again someday. Thanks for the video guys!
Paul: “Come get on this road!”
Me: “I did, it was glorious!”
Last years road trip included this because of their Glacier piece.
The roads in Northwest Arkansas are pretty spectacular. I enjoy them pretty much every weekend in my MR2 Spyder. Hope to visit this road in Wyoming. Great video.
Also in Tennessee, even heading east past Nashville, Knoxville, etc and on into North Carolina....beautiful views everywhere
I bought my dream car - an O5’ Lotus Elise in Aubergine Purple. It brings me so much joy to drive it. I love to give my kids rides in it and go find new roads. We call it, getting lost to find ourselves.
Recently, my soon-to-be 16 year old daughter, who has her drivers permit, asked me if I would teach her to drive a manual in her favorite car - the Elise. What a beautiful moment. With some careful instruction, I’m proud to say that we did it with no harm to the clutch. I don’t know many folks who get to say that they learned to drive stick in a Lotus Elise 😂 🤙🏻. She was so proud - and I am so proud. Now, she and I can go discover new roads together.
Enjoy the drive.
You guys inspired me to get out more this summer and enjoy the Rockies, thanks.
Squaw pass, golden gate canyon road, and many more in Colorado are worth experiencing!
Honored to have been a help in you getting out on great drives. Thanks for watching!
You guys did my drive from 3 month ago!!! I absolutely love Cody Wyoming! Beartooth drive is breath taking! Love it!!!
4:46 Best part of the video
Never even heard of this area for car enthusiast, and its possibly the most incredible thing i have seen. Kudos.
Charles Kuralt, who knew about every road in the country, said Beartooth Highway was his favorite. I drove the Beartooth Highway a couple years ago in a new(3k mile) rental F-150 with the 2.7 ecoboost. Despite the fact that the Ford started hemorrhaging oil on the drive from Salt Lake to Yellowstone(5 quarts in 4 days), that road really brought out how light the front end of F-150 was with that powertrain. When I dropped it off in Bozeman, the rental company swapped it out for a Ram which I drove up to Glacier NP on the Going to the Sun Road. It felt like a Mack Truck compared to the Ford, but it didn't loose/use a drop of oil.
I love this road! We drove it in 1992 on a family vacation. We were in a jeep Cherokee and the whole time I was wishing I was in our Vette. The road reminded me of a Colorado 4 wheel drive trail that was 2 lanes and paved. One of the most enjoyable roads I have ever driven! 😊
I've been watching these over and over as I impatiently wait for my C8 to arrive. Thanks for showing us so many beautiful roads. I'd like to take road trips like these one day in the near future.
I took delivery of my C8 almost a year ago and it's still an experience every time I drive it. You are going to love yours!
Always looking for a reason to drive mine. Honestly many times I don't even have a destination in mind.
The last time I drove Chief Joseph I was in my Acura CL Type S chasing a C5 Corvette. Good times. I’ve spent many days on the Beartooth highway skiing on Memorial Day weekend. When the Montana side was destroyed by several land slides, we approached from the Wyoming side… I took a nap in the middle of the highway because the blacktop was warm. I love that area and have so many good memories.
That scenery is phenomenal. It’s like you said, “this would be amazing in a camper” and you guys are in THOSE cars. Brilliant.
When someone asks me why i enjoy driving for fun, i want to show them this video. You've captured the joy of the experience so well. Great video, you nailed this one and your joy is infectious.
Glad you enjoyed and it properly shared the experience. Thanks for watching!
You guys do have the knack to make me NEED to drive those cars and those roads. That must have been quite an experience!
We’re glad to hear this had the intended effect! Thanks for watching!
I did one of these but in AZ, through several of the national parks in my full size sedan. Now with an ND2 RF, I’m getting ready to go back and maybe beyond. This hypes me up so much!
took my nd2 rf to bearooth hwy from canada before the pandemic, you gotta make the trek to it, very worthwhile
I have done the same kind of dedicated trip to an incredible driving road in Central Oregon. The road you two were on looks even better!
Paul is absolutely right when he says "It's different going the other way " My son and I do that with our favorite roads near San Diego CA. in sports cars and on motorcycles !! Thanks for the wonderful scenery guys !! 😊
Highland Valley road in North County SD is a good example. I like it better Eastbound on a bike, Westbound in a car.
@@michaelshapiro1296 that's one of the roads I'm talking about Mike...see you out there 👍
"Therapy Road" That says it all. The CJH and Beartooth are favorites and absolutely fit that description. Thanks for reminding me that it's time, once again, to get out there.....somewhere....where the roads provide that feeling!
Love it!! Thanks for the entertainment, and for a new road to add to my driving pilgrimage.
Added to bucket list! CO 141 from Grand Junction to Naturita isn't too far from you all. Combined with 65 from Delta through Mesa to Grand Junction, it's a great loop.
We've done 141 and really enjoy it. In fact, we did a road trip video on that road with our cheap sports cars (Z4 and SLK). We also included it on our latest Everyday Driver adventure with a group of fans!
@@EverydayDriver Have you all heard of the Beartooth Highway? ;) I'll find that video, thanks! Those trips are on my radar, one more reason to keep an eye on them.
Now you’ve done it - you let the cat out of the bag. Now everyone will want to come drive it! Can’t blame you tho - it’s a special place that never gets old. Thanks for this!
Glad you saw this!
Living in Colorado, I most definitely do make a day of just going for a drive. Quite often. And since I'm in northern Colorado, I might just have to make a weekend of going to check out this road. I will visit it one day though; the main goal of the wagon I'm building is to drive to every state and find good roads all around the country to enjoy, while also having something to sleep in when I find myself in the middle of nowhere. Your road trip videos have been a great resource for note-taking on places to visit.
If you're asking "do people really spend all day to go for a drive" UH HECK YEAH. NC roads are epic, do it all the time. On this side of the US, it's the Cherohala Skyway for me. Nice vid guys!
Enjoyed this one! Great cars and great roads! Bucket list
Lotus Elise Turbo owner here and my wife has a '23 C8. We should do a parody video of yours!!! Hahaha 😂
I live in Idaho and this road just became a bucket list item for sure. Only about 4 hours to Cody, and yet I had no idea. Wow.
These roads are on the list for next summer. I have a 2014 C7 Corvette with 89000 miles on the clock. I have 10 more states to drive in and I’ll have driven in all 48 and 5 Canadian provinces. Drove The Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia this past summer. I live in Michigan and will be putting the car in storage for winter in a few weeks.
There used to be a TV show here in New Zealand where the host, Bill Hohepa, would go on 4x4 treks. I remember being suitably impressed when they took pies wrapped in tinfoil and sat them in the engine bay while they drove so that they'd have a hot lunch. Was a laugh to see you guys cooking your sandwiches in the rear of the Lotus!
We were surprised it worked as well as it did! Thanks for watching!
@@EverydayDriver "Lotus heated luggage". I think it is patented :-D Works well on the Alpine A110 too. So well that it heated a bottle of wine sufficiently enough to drive the (plastic = slippery) "cork" out of the bottle. Now my rear trunk smells funny....
Beautiful, meaningful, poetic. Thank you ED
My wife and I stopped in Cody while circling the country by RV. We went mountain biking at Beck Lake, with views of the Rockies on one side, views of Bighorn on the other, and beautiful high desert trails stretched way out before us.
Incredible views especially from the drone coverage. Would love to drive here in my 99 C5 FRC !
The second day of owning my GR86 I spent the whole day driving B roads in South Australia and it was the greatest introduction to that car that I could have asked for.
The roads you have driven your sports cars on are perfect for any drivers car and the smile on your faces says it all. Enjoy those beautiful cars as I'm enjoying my 86
You’re speaking my language, fellas. There’s a couple of stretches between Banff National Park and the Thompson-Nicola region of BC that share the spirit. Wonderful segment. Bravo!
I grinned all the way thru this video. Your love for what you do is contagious.
I’ve always heard Beartooth Pass is an epic road. Unfortunately my one time in the area, I took a different route in to Yellowstone. Back East, I always enjoy the Cherohala Skyway, hitting over the 5k feet between NC & TN with similar sweeping curves for 40 miles. It’s often looped with the Tail of the Dragon for different types of roads.
The Beartooth Highway is my favorite road yet. Also, don't forget the 3 amazing drives through the Bighorn Mountains as well. Worth the trip to find these.
Cherohala is fantastic, as is Blueridge Parkway. Just awesome roads!
I appreciate you guys bringing the normalcy that seems to get lost in the UA-cam journalism. Awesome video! I will own a Lotus before I die.
I love my NB1 Miata like Todd loves his Elise, fun at any speed.
I know what you mean when you take a road trip just to drive a road. Once I got my 2015 Mustang EB properly modified by Steeda, I first took a day to drive the roads within the North Georgia Mountains. Then I took a weekend to drive the Tail of the Dragon. I made sure I was prepared, including the rules of the road like pulling over to let motorcycles pass. Even the roads getting to and from the Tail were fun and provided beautiful views.
I can see Todd’s synapse firing from all the stimulus and the fact he has his favourite car on this favourite road, and what a road. 100 miles of twists and turns and changes of landscape. Paul’s Cayman must be the intersection of these two cars?
Two things: First, this reminds me of the time when I finally got off the highway in Knoxville and drove The Tail of the Dragon in my Saturn SC2 5-speed. It was a scrappy little car, but I was so worth it!
Second: I may not have my little sports car anymore, but I do get enjoyment finding muddy, rutted local roads in the Ozark region and attacking them with aplomb with my 4x4. Were those squeals from the back seat because of fear, surprise, fun? Dunno. Don't care. As long as there's no vomit, I ain't stopping!
Thanks. I’ll add this to my destination list for when my Z06 comes in. I live in Idaho so it’s perfect for a 3-4 day trip. I’ll ad my dog to your list to bring along. And even if I’ve never done a car and coffee run, my answer to your question is still YES!
you guys ever get a chance to go up to Northern California to the Gold Rush area, highway 49 Grass Valley is beautiful. you want to go north and then west to Quincy and then around South to the feather River canyon. it is possibly the most beautiful drive in California. few people know about it. from Grass Valley all the way down Oroville about 4 hours of non-stop scenery and twisties
Todd's t-shirt is perfect for this video, of course.
My wife and I always love watching your content, especially the road trips, whether you're in old sports cars or newer ones. Your production values are through the roof!!! Those drone shots are amazing!!!
Thanks as always for your enthusiasm, love of driving and taking us along......means alot.
Thrilled to have you watching and we’re glad our trips are resonating with you.
This is the type of driving I can't get enough of. I recently drove the Tail of the Dragon for the first time, and it was breathtaking. I hope I can't take more trips like this in the future.
Seriously guys I have been waiting over a decade for a serious video about this road. Thank you thank you thank you. I may be from Ohio but someday I plan to come back to this road in my fun car and not the family hauler!
Glad you feel like we did it right. Thanks for watching!
There are SO MANY great roads in the US; I now have another road trip destination!! Thanks for the inspiration! One question: how tight were the speed limits enforced? My experience at Tail of the Dragon was fairly dampened by a strong presence of law enforcement on the 35 mph speed limits. Now, in the Ozarks of northern Arkansas/southern Missouri? 👍👍👍
🥰 Thanks so much for coming back here and sharing with us! Therapy road without question! Life goals right here! I hope to come down from Canada and cruise here some day. ❤
That's an extremely beautiful place! Thanks for taking me there.
for Europians, those wide roads in the middle of nowhere are just great - but there's one issue -> too slow - if You wanna drive legal. I saw 20miles speed limit that You were passing by., so its 32km/h. In Europe it will be 90km/h minimum - if there will be speed limit in sucha wild place - which is 3times faster. Germans raised up speed limit outside the urban areas to 100km/h, cause there's no need to go that slow for them. Elise is a great machine for that kind of adventure, im 6,3 and I was to buy 1gen boxster - but i couldn't fit -how U get into the lotus :) Guess new Corvette is awesome too. Still im jealous about those free spaces You got there Guys - great episode too!
Keep in mind those speed limits like the 20mph signs, are suggested speeds for the upcoming corner and not the actual speed limit of the road. The idea is to give a heads up to how sharp the curve is and to say that anything can safely make the next corner at (blank) speed.
@@phattyhalesyes many of us Europeans come to the US and think that the speed signs are actual legal limits - we’re not used to “advisory” signage like you guys have!
Just love love love these cinematic Everyday Driver road-trip videos! Thanks, and cheers from Charlotte, NC
Glad to have you watching and enjoying. Thank you!
This really sums it all up. Nothing like going on a roadtrip on these kind of roads with your friend(s). Great video once again!👌🏻👍🏻
Agreed! I drove this same two roads in a Toyota Sienna and it was just as much fun. Would love to take my Miata there but it's a bit far from Maryland!
Nothing like a Western road trip in a Corvette! This is how I got addicted to corvettes in the first place!
Wow, ,that road is amazing!
I've done all those roads on my motorcycle. You guys get it. Driving a sports car with the top down is close to riding a motorcycle. I also own an ND2 Miata RF Club so I know the comparison. 😊
This is my favorite road for a day trip from my house. So glad to see you all give it the props it deserves.
Awesome as always!
Another great driving experience nicely captured. I drove across South Dakota and Montana in my BRZ, had a great time and plan to go back to exploring. More awesome a varied roads. Route 12 in Utah is still in a league of its own though.
We take a group on Utah’s Hwy 12 every year, an amazing road. Thanks for watching!
Everytime I see the elise, it makes me REALLY miss mine RIP 2020
Yall are, by far, The Best UA-cam Car Race Channel ever … for reals!!
Thank you! Thrilled to have you watching!
I love the Lotus contents.
Please keep them coming.
This channel has some of the best scenic drives.
Fellas…….I truly loved everything about this video. Fun cars, beautiful landscape, the feeling of freedom that we are lucky enough to have in our beautiful country.
Truly loved it, thank you 🙏🏼😎
I will be saving this route and doing the same trip soon. 🙌🏼😎
Really glad you enjoyed this. And we intend to lead a group down this road later in 2024 - there will be details on our website soon. Thanks for watching!
Another fantastic production with great content, beautiful cinematography, and enthusiasm for where you are at that moment. Todd and Paul's excitement when discovering an amazing stretch of road is palpable. Well Done!
One of the best roads I have ever been on, even in a Toyota Sienna, great film fellas!
Excited to drive this road one day. Hopefully.
Drove through Yosemite and Sequoia parks this summer in a rented MX-5 ND. I don’t live near curvy roads normally and the driving experience was a real highlight for me
Couldn't agree more - get a 2 seater convertible and get out !! I own a Mercedes SLK300 (I know you guys didn't like it !!) but driving these twisty highways cannot be bettered - I went through Cody in May 2023 on my way to Hwy 50 across Nevada, and driving the State highways is so much more enjoyable than the "straight" Interstates.
8:45 viewer from Toronto, Canada here. It would take over a days drive to get there. I know of at least one other friend from here that would make this drive. Looks like an epic time. Sheer joy on your faces
I've only towed my trailer up and down that road. It's been high on my list to return with something much more enjoyable to drive.
I love those two roads! I drove them both ways with some friends a couple years ago-each in our own fun cars!
Great episode. I am the odd duck out as I see this road and all I think it "which motorcycle am I going to take on it?" Funny for me as, the Northern (US) Rockies are my 2024 long motorcycle tour including Beartooth...would have been 2023 except the late snowfall in the region had me pivot to doing the Northeast instead.
Enjoyed this one!
Oh, man. I lived in WY and totally missed this. Need to fly to Denver, rent something fun, and make the drive!
You guys are blessed.
That's it. Taking my newly purchased 718CS to the Blue Ridge Mountains in a few weeks. You've convinced me.
I am jealous of the views and roads near you guys. I would drive that often if I could
Wow!!! Fantasticest trip! You guys really captured the beauty and joy of the road and scenery. The essence why we live cars. Thank you! Another bucket listed trip!!!
Just marked it on my map. Only 8 hours from Denver.
With my car it takes 13 seconds top close to put away. Beautiful roads, fantastic road trip. Also, Yellowstone in the east, out the North an entirely new experience.
