What started as our latest road trip, became our biggest film ever! We set out toward Mt. Rushmore in our very different mid-engines, a Lotus Elise and C8 Corvette. And along the way we found road side attractions we'd never heard of, and great driving we never expected. From sarcasm to serious history, join us for our biggest and most varied road trip yet!

    You guys are what top gear America should have been
  • @zmarko
    I'm not usually a fan of collaborations between channels, BUT I would love to see you guys team up with Thomas and James from Throttle House for a road trip of this caliber. I think it would be hilarious, and interesting, and tons of fun.
  • @Cooperd0g
    Paul is just so happy to have working AC!
  • @scoobers90
    Once again Everyday Driver is setting the gold standard for YouTube car channel cinematography. I mean, it isn't even fair! This was amazing. No idea how you guys are going to top this one.
  • @rdiamond655
    I love that Paul finally gets to gloat about COLD AC!
  • @dmill0900
    The roads, dialogue, shots and music were perfection. My favorite road trip piece to date. Thank you for inspiring us all by making content like this.
  • @brandonjames1606
    I planned to watch this in two or three sittings but I blasted through the whole video. No one else can pull off a 1.5 hour Youtube video. Fantastic video as always guys!
  • @jims98z28
    I started watching and I was like, woah 90 minutes, that's a little much. Then next thing I know its over and In desperately wanted more. Great video

    I've got a 2006 NA Exige. My buddy has a C8. We make fun of each other.

    The Vette is absolutely the better car...for going somewhere.
    The Lotus is absolutely the better car...for driving just to drive.
  • @L0rdVadr
    Watched it. Loved it. Def got a little bit of top gear vibes. But minus the drama. Great film guys. Def enjoyed it. See you (hear you) on Tues.
  • @shawoo
    The split lanes, the pigtail. Wow!
  • @bruceboehm10
    Will watch it on the TV this evening but came here to like and comment.
  • @evansc3580
    I bought one of the Final Edition Elise 250 Cup and also Final Edition Exige 430 Cup. Love them both equally. Sad to see Lotus selling almost exclusively electric appliances these days.

    I once drove a uhaul towing my car through South Dakota and Wyoming on a move from Miami to Seattle (and back two years later). I saw Devil’s Tower from 90 and didn’t stop-there were lots of interesting places I didn’t stop. You have inspired me to take my 944!
  • @SHADOWW18
    Just an aussie here planning my USA trip, How cool are the split roads.... Svvvveeeettttttt!
  • One thing I love about your channel is the road trips that show how beautiful our country is in between the coasts. What I dislike about your channel is that others will discover this and clog the roads!
  • @verdict1163
    Really enjoy these road trip videos. They always put me in a philosophical frame of mind where I find myself contemplating different cars and which I'd like to take on a long trip.
