 Depoe Bay Oregon, 2023.


I've posed with many different vehicles in this same spot.

I was really looking forward to driving my Navigator on this trip. I'd already put almost 3,000 miles on it since I bought it last November. I've taken it on a few shorter trips, to Pismo beach, and Windsor, besides quite a few of those 100 mile plus round trips for errands and trips visiting family.

 Is a Navigator really too much? Part Two. 


That's a Navigator on the right,
Don't forget that a semi truck is bigger than both!

As I explored in the last post, a person that chooses to travel by large SUV is going to be spending more money than a traveller in a compact car.

 Nostalgia, Again.


You'd have to have a heart of stone to resist this beauty.

Recently there was a post on Curbside Classic that featured a '57 Chevy Bel Air.

The writer confessed to having a decades long love affair with this model, and he admitted to his long term desire to own one for himself.

 Is the Navigator really too much? Part One.


I've never had an Aviator, but I had a '97 Explorer,
which was the same size.  The Navigator is the big one in the picture!

I suppose that it depends on what you mean by too much.

 Taking a look at what the Navigator might need.


Nice and new from Amazon.

I've already covered the cosmetic work that I did on the Navigator, repainting the front bumper being the primary thing.
