You WILL learn lots! I'm not on here so much anymore, but when researching the HHR and during purchasing I learned lots from these fine folks!

 

(Sorry for the necroposting. If it is more acceptable I can start a new thread.)


I'm originally from Mena and I've been in your neck of the woods many times. I'm also a huge Razorback fan. I have a Razorback on my left upper arm which should give you an idea of how hardcore of a Hog fan that I am. My '10 1LT is painted a burgundy color which is one of the many shades of red that the Razorbacks have used over the years and it has an old school Hog license plate along with a Razorback sticker on the back window at the bottom in the middle. Woo pig sooie!

 

You would have to be driving at felonious speeds or faster if you can make it from De Queen to the Red River in 10 minutes. I'll give you Oklahoma as the trip from De Queen and Ultima Thule at the state line is only a few miles away.


I can't wait until I-49 is built between Alma and Texarkana. I've been told that the next segment of I-49 to be built will be the Mena bypass. I hope I live long enough to see at least part of the highway through the mountains completed. It should be a gorgeous drive.
