Internationally:

I can only say the countries of Canada, USA, and Mexico. It's rather hard to drive across either of the major oceans.

Canada:
I've been to every province and territory. Our family has pictures of the car in Cape Spear and Vancouver Island. The amazing this is that we managed to get from Montreal, Quebec to Edmonton, Alberta in 2 days. The travel book estimated 4 days and then some.

USA:
All of the states along both the Atlanic and Pacific Oceans as well as a select few in the interior (whichever ones you have to pass through in order to get from New York to southern Alberta)

Mexico:
Down to the Yuckitan (I'm not sure if that's the correct spelling - it's probably not) peninsula and back up.

All of this was done in our fifteen thousand dollar 1990 Crysler Acclain. Stangely enough, cars that are being made today have the same engine as ours (3 litre V6), cost twice as much, and don't go as fast! Then again, the car we have would DIE in any collision - it's only 1 ton after all. Still, it's fun to watch the expressions on peoples faces as we go zipping past them in the old 'box on wheels' while they have the new cars that are supposed to be fast...
