6000 kms road trip travelogue (Mumbai-HP-Punjab-Jammu-Raj.-Ahmedabad-Mumbai)-PART-1

Hai Pankaj,

Great report and nice pictures. As already pointed out, some more photos would be nice.

Reminded me of my (2005 June Fusion ) family trip (2500 kms) to Uttranchal and back in 2005 and 4500 kms trip I did from Ahmedabad to Cochin and back. 6000 kms on a Fusion, I think one of the longest I have come across.

Great reading your graphic report.

Hi Ramky,

Good to see you on this forum mate. I normally try to keep track of most of your trip logs (done either by Fusion or Scorpio). Your 2005 Ahmedabad-Cochin trip log was quite helpful when I did the trip. Btw, this was my fourth 4000+ km trip by Fusion.

I did post few more pics in trailing reply section of this thread. Few more pics I shall be posting with Part-II of the travelogue.

Hey!!! You guys have earned cherished memories I am sure.... A very "warm" account.... Kind of motivates you to drive off into the hills!!

Hey... By the way, how did the fusion hold out??? Any issues that you may have observed (with regard to mountain driving)??
