      You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
      My LS is definitely the nicest car I’ve owned. I’m glad you done a road trip in yours as well. That’s what they are built for!!

    Great vid! You couldn't have picked a better car to do that trip! Can you share what Audio system you are using? Thanks

      Thanks Dave! I was a great car to do it in.
      I am using the factory Mark Levinson system with the addition of the GROM Vline2. I have thought about making a video specifically about the GROM. I know there are other videos about it but I’m not sure if there are any about it in an LS460. Should I do that?

      @@bennieaust Bernie, I made the comment before I watched your other vids. And Grom has their own vid own installation, but as we all know, those can gloss over some details in the name of "sales" so for you to make one for the real world would be great. I would be very curious about your opinions on functionality and how you like it. The vid with a user on their website seems a little clunky, but who knows. So, my answer is, yes please do one!

    no freakin way. Belle plaine?!?! my folks live there and i use too. im going to orlando in November. any advice on the drive?

      That's awesome!!
      If you follow google maps it will send you on a good route. The main thing to avoid is going through Chicago. Google maps will send you down south far enough to avoid the traffic and tolls in that area.
      Hope you have a great trip!!

    Did you drive straight through both ways? If so, did you just take turns driving and sleeping?

    • @bennieaust
      @bennieaust  Год назад +1

      That’s exactly what we did. You can really cover a lot of ground fast doing it that way.

    Hey I from Jordan Minn. About to the same drive from Shakopee to Fort Myers here in a few weeks! Any tips or places to check out?

      I think heading down to the Everglades is a worthwhile trip. There are a few stops you can make to see some alligators up close. Checkout the "Oasis Ranger Station". Its free and there are always gators hanging out.
      I would also highly recommend "Everglades Air Boat Tours" and Capt. Steven Lenz

      Also look in to getting a Uni toll transponder:
      www.amazon.com/Prepaid-Portable-Automatic-Payment-Nonstop/dp/B08C3T3KYR
      Then setup an account and register your transponder here:

      I hope you have an awesome safe trip!

    Now I want to jump in my LS and hit the road! Really cool video! Felt like I was along for the trip! What did your MPG average out for the trip?

    • @bennieaust
      @bennieaust  2 года назад

      Thanks! I want to go on another trip too. :)
      I averaged 26 for the entire trip. Which was obviously mostly highway, but there was a lot of driving while down there.
