Colorado's One Million Dollar Highway Roadtrip in an F80

I've always wanted to take a roadtrip, drive through Colorado's beautiful scenic ways in the F80. But with our 2 little kids, we always ended up taking the minivan for our family roadtrips. This past 4th of July weekend, my wife took the kids and spent some time at the in-laws. I decided to take a couple days off and hit the road this past week.

I ended up putting 880 miles in 4 days of driving. We've been to Telluride several times, but this was my first time driving through Silverton and Ouray, the One Million Dollar Highway, in an M3. Its name and reputation surely did not disappoint!

Hope you enjoy the pics!

















Camping near Bayfield, a little bit gravel road.
















Yes, I'm super dirty!


And she turned 10K on the way back home!


Got back to Denver Friday night, washed and detailed the car for Saturday's C&C.

Nice, I'm currently one week into my two week New England road trip. Driven 1500 miles so far and loving it!

The photos are surreally beautiful. Did you take a photography lesson in the past?

Your car would look great in any photo. Super sharp!

Photography is only a hobby.
Most of the pics were taken with an older Canon SLR and a few with an iPhone 😀
