## Resource

Ah, hitting the open road! A timeless rite of passage and quintessentially American adventure, unless of course you’re stuck in the car with your whole family, taking the bus or making unexpected pit stops so your driver can hook up with random dudes. We recount some of our most memorable, or in some cases mercifully forgettable automobile journeys. Intro contains clips from National Lampoon’s Vacation, The Simpsons and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
