    There aren't may people showing off their Routans on here.

    Summer is ending, so let's post some pics of our summer time adventures.


    This was in Whiteshell Provincial Park just before sunset, parked on a rock in front of white lake near Rainbow falls.

    No pics? Really?

    Come on guys... this was posted 25 days ago and has been viewed over 240 times.
    I can't believe that nobody has any adventure pictures of their Routan?
    Somebody must, even pictures with your Routan simply in the background.
    Doesn't have to be modded, but obviously can be.

    So this is my "bump" for some pics.

    Oh, and Happy Halloween!

    Sorry PaulAP,

    Last weekend we did a trip from Philadelphia up to Niagara Falls and stayed on your side. The van didn't get out to sight see too much. It stayed parked in the parking garage and we walked around. I'll have to check the phone to see if she happened to slip in one of my pics. Awesome trip though, the Rout averaged 25 MPG for the entire trip at highway speeds of 75 to 80 MPH, it was 398 miles one way. It never skipped a beat was a very comfy ride up and back and was amazing on gas. I have to say this was our first "big" road trip in the Rout since we bought it two years ago and on the way up we rolled 40,000 miles.

    If you want to post a picture, first you have to host it somewhere (there are plenty of free services for doing this - flickr, picasa, etc). Then, get the url of your picture, and put it between two img tags in your post, like this:

    [imgx]http://yourpictureurlgoeshere.com[/imgx] (but without the "x" in each tag)

    And presto, your image will appear in your post.

    or this...

    It's only easy once you've done it a couple times

    Here is a few pics of my Lovely 2011 S.

    I just love the ride, no matter how many people it´s always very smoot.

    Went to DC a month ago and five people in it, still perfect handling.

    Yes, they do handle well (for a minivan)... and "smoot"
    Ahhh Fall... We have been buried in our winter snow here for a while already.


    You've got a very clean looking Routan there...
