Well my parents and I are taking a trip in July. Phoenix to Denver. Taking my TDI. We went last year to Idaho, but took their 2008 Honda Civic Hybrid. Looking forward to the drive. The first day we are driving through the 4 corners and stopping, then staying overnight in Durango. Any sights that are a must see? Then we are driving and staying about an hour from Denver since it is cheaper. Going to make day trips to places around. Any ideas? We got a great deal on an extended sty hotel. Book for a week and get a suite for 38$ a night. Not too shabby. Its only about 500 miles to Durango, easily in the TDI's range. Looking forward to documenting the MPG. Does anyone know the various elevation changes? We are pretty low here south of Phoenix, and Denver is obviously pretty high up. Any fun mountain ranges along the way?
