My wife and I last year drove from Calgary down through to the Crowsnest pass all the way through the kootenays south over the pass by Rossland north through the Okanagan and back west as far as Victoria in a 1969 2002 loaded to the roof with stuff and had no problems. We also had a great time and enjoyed the attention we got in some of the smaller more remote towns we went through where no one would even think of owning a car like an 02 it was awesome.

Anyone ever driven the "Going to the Sun" highway in monatana??? Heard it is amazing. Has anyone driven their cars in the mountain (rockies). I drove to from Calgary to Vancouver a few years ago in a fuel injected jetta. The car struggled some through the higher passes, and I am wondering how a 25 year old 02 might function in a similar situation. Previous owner of my car tricked it out a touch with a shrick cam, and the weber etc... this performance stuff tends to make my car a pain in the ass to get fixed/keep running smoothly and it seems to need more tending to than a more "stock" 02. I think my problem is that I am living in an area where no one drives these cars...
