Ya sorry I changed the route a bit. Trying to avoid cities/traffic/lights.

As much as it sucks that route misses the coast... It's a wise decision. If you've ever driven coastal rt1 .... It's slow.

 

[IBratmanI]

There will still be plenty of coastal route 1 covered, just not much down this way. Should be a nice drive!

 

[Tyler]

If you do the wiring for my 5speed swap I'll wire your DCCD

LMAO, there is a reason I need help with the wiring for my DCCD!!! Me and car wiring do not go well together!

I'll do all of your wiring

 

[IBratmanI]

Well come on over Tyler!!

 

[Chris]

My moped should be done by the drive... maybe I should ride that!! 150mpg FTW. haha

 

[ReZDoG]

heh.. Missing soo many good roads again.. but what do I know..

I am curious if you did get a hold of Acadia National Park to make them aware you are going to have like 30+ Subarus acting a fool in their park? Also, are people aware there is a Fee to get into the Park Loop road?

 

[Chris]

I've never payed to get in...

 

[cwiggin]

how much of a fee is there??? be nice to know a cost just in case

 

[IBratmanI]

All the info is on the first page

 

[Impreza05]

Your gonna pay my way right? lol

 

[02 WRX Chris]

Yea...Fail on paying to get into the national park. I don't like that idea.

 

[ReZDoG]

heh..

 

[ReZPunK]

there are far more fun roads to drive on MDI rather than park loop and they are free.

Sargents Drive - northeast harbor

Hall Quarry Road - southwest harbor

indian point road - Mount desert

Seawall drive - southwest harbor

Tremont Road tremont and benard

Crooked Road - bar harbor

taking 3/198 from Somesville around back into Bar Harbor is a fun drive, down into Otter Creek.

if you take follow 3/198 into Seal cove, you can get on the last leg of loop road where there isn't a gate to get in, ending at cadillac then back into bar harbor.

I will stop now...and go back to planning my Dirt Drive. carry on.
