I havent been there since I was a very small child, in fact, I can hardly remember it. I will be traveling to Bozeman MT this weekend, and plan to wander through the park in the Z on the way. Ive been doing reading on the park. The Yellowstone park website says "most roads are narrow, rough, and busy". My question is, has anyone ever taken their Z through that park, or has anyone been there recently to give me some insight on that? Can the Z handle the roads?

I was in Jackson Hole, Wyoming two weeks ago. Drove to Yellowstone and saw Old Faithful......took about a twenty minute wait in that it "errupts" about every 45 minutes.
Cost $25 to enter the park (pass good for a week). Main roads are excellent to drive on.....no problem for a Z.

Whats up with the spammers all the sudden? lame.
Well I thought I would report back. The trip went well! We had lots of fun. A lot of driving, but i love driving so it was nice. TONS of amazing things to see in that park. I thought a Bison was going to walk right over my hood! I literally could have pet him as he walked by my open window. My GF got pulled over driving the Z, she got pulled over before I did in my car! Luckily, the officer just gave her a warning (she was going 14 over). I thought for sure she was going to get sited. I took my dog Karma with me, and a huge blanket to protect the interior. The second night, she had to sleep in the car due to the hotel rules. She does great in the car though, she actually loves being in there hah. Funny thing was, she stepped on the hazard light switch and killed my battery overnight. Luckily I was parked on an incline. I let the Z roll back for a few feet, poped the clutch in reverse and she fired right up. Never done a pop start in reverse before lol. So yea, had a great time, Z handled it just fine! I think you could even take a lowered Z there if you were careful.
