Driving across America in a big old V8 (cross-country road trip)

Surely, driving across America is on every motorhead's bucket list.  I was lucky enough to do the trip seven times.  Six times, I drove a four cylinder soft top Jeep Wrangler with no air conditioning and no radio.  On my seventh trip, I drove a lumbering moving truck with a glitchy "Check Engine" light.  Despite the discomfort and stress, I loved every minute of it.

Here, three Brits bought a 1970s Cadillac coupe for $1,000 on ebay and drove it across America.  It's a great story.  If you get lost, just follow their trail of power steering fluid and coolant!
