Ever since I first saw the concept car, I have been a fan of the Chrysler Crossfire.
A lot of hard work and a bit of luck, I was finally able to purchase a brand new 2008 black coupe at the end of that year.

Previous road trips I took in the Crossfire were always solo and I never put much thought into traveling with other Crossfire owners before.
I got a message from the Crossfire forum I am part of about a get together in early October.
The plan was to meet up in Long Beach, WA and travel to Newport, OR over the weekend… something I just could not pass up.

We made our way down the coast and crossed the Astoria–Megler Bridge.

I remember going over this bridge on a family trip long ago and it is still an impressive structure rising over the Columbia River.
The Tillamook Air Museum is the stop I was most looking forward to visiting.
I have always enjoyed the old WWII aircraft and have the upmost respect to those who flew and maintained them during the war.
One of the very few flyable P-38 Lightning airframes was there so I even got to see my favorite plane up close.
I thought… how fun it was to drive in a group.

I am looking forward to the next big road trip to Rifle, CO in July for the Crossfires Across America #5 meet
where there may be up to fifty cars.
