    Depending on how loud your exhaust is with/without drone, it could get annoying on a long trip. Bring some ear plugs, problem solved.

    Trip out east in the Stang would be memorable and fun I think.

    Take the cannolis , leave the gun. Take the mustang, leave the daily driver.
    That’s what Clemenza would do and so should you.

    Lots of votes for taking the mustang but then I saw this in another thread.

    ^ So obviously you'll need to under boost most of the miles, win win situation in my eyes.

    Remember speed limit is higher in New Brunswick plus apparently not enough cops so they don’t really do radar anymore on anything but the highway.

    I've done a summer road trip to Nova Scotia annually for the last 10 years or so.
    We usually go down in August when the weather is the warmest.
    Lots to see just in NS. Cape Breton, Glooscap Trail is a neat drive. Clam Harbour Beach is awesome, and has a massive sand castle building competition. If you can get to the lookout for the Annapolis Valley, what a view!

    We have done both the Canadian route, and the USA. The Canadian way is 2 lane blacktop and wide open. La Pocatiere in Quebec is great place to stop for a break. It's right on the St Lawrence, and if the weather is favorable, there will be people kite surfing, pretty neat to see, plus you can get gas, washrooms, there is a Tim Horton's and McDonalds.

    US side is smaller highways and brings you through small towns. I loved Maine. Lots to see in Vermont, and NH. We drove up MT Washington, that was an experience.
    You could go down Canada and back USA, or the other way.

    We have also done the ferry across from Digby, NS to St. John NB.
    If you go this route, try to get across to Saint John before dark, as the risk of moose at night is crazy.

    Be prepared for bugs, bugs, bugs, and then the possibility of stone chips.
    Any provincial parks are dirt roads, and will cover your car.
    You could be socked in with fog down east at any time, sometimes for days.
    Speed limit through New Brunswick is 120kmh, so 125kmh it is lol.

    If you're ok with the wear and tear on the stang, and maybe a 3M clear wrap on the bumper and hood, I would take the stang.

    C'mon Al, if I can drive a 73 Super Beetle (that I'd just bought) from Calgary back home to the GTA, certainly your late-model Mustang can survive the planned excursion.
