Games to keep your mind off the drive

http://americaonwheels.org/AOW%20Car%20Games.htm has several, most of them I've never heard of.

I have used the 'farthest state plate' to keep my mind active and looking around, and when on a long drive with someone else the name game is a fun and competitive way to see who can start the next name with the last letter of the previous full name. ie Jack PalancE to Emilio EsteveS to Steven SpielberG to George Burns. This was a great way to waste a lot of time on watch while I was in the Navy too. It gets competitive when someone has to start a name with a X, Y, or V. Yasmine Bleeth was always a good bet.

Name foreign cars from a certain country was a good one too.

Cars and photograhy, a picture of both my favorite things in one.

1924 Harley used by the Post Office for Special Delivery. Not a chance in a zillion they'd ever buy a Harley nowadays for postal deliveries

WW2 warbirds

I think both of these were from http://pixdaus.com/

Edgar's 2+2... immaculate

Cool looking AC controls I've never seen before, looks like they took the controls of a radio and replaced the internals.

1974 GTO... rare red white and blue, gotta give credit for restoring this and bringing it out to car shows

Beautiful GTO

1960 Bonneville 4 door

Magi Cruise?!? No kidding, that was a bonafide approved sales idea? I get it, that it's a early cruise control, and that is very cool! But the name, Magi Cruise? Way too childish. Of course "Wonder Bar" must have came from the same ad agency exec.

This is the strongest looking grab bar I've seen!

This wraparound rear window, wow, that's huge and must be impossible to replace, but what a great view!
