Really, it's kinda sad when you think about it. A car that was last built 17 years ago, still gets 2 to 3 times the cars than the Alero show got in 2004

Depends what that 17 year old car is... If we're talking about a 96 Impala SS, of course it's going to get more attention since it's a muscle car. The Alero was never anyting special and that's the saddest part of this. It's the last Oldsmobile ever to be made and yet it's seen as so mundane that when the 1999 Alero is 20 years old, an Alero is going to be a rare sight.
My point is that it's hard to be passionate about a compact FWD car, even if it is anything special. Ask the W body guys about that, the Turbo Grand Prix and the Cutlass Supreme Convertible were limited edition runs like the 94-96 Impala SS, but they'll never command the money nor have the community that the Impala SS enjoys.

We had 2 guys come out from Cali, 1 from Texas and a couple from Kansas a few years back ago and they had a blast.

Yup they drove. 44 hour drive time IIRC.
My g/f wants to take the drive out, but I didn't take vacation time that week this year.
With as screwed up as Homecoming has been the past few years, If I feel the 330 in the Delta could make such a trip, I would cruise out in that and park next to you guys at homecoming, although that car was made in Wilmington, DE

is there at least some decent highway driving in there, city only and too low of mileage isn't that good on a car when things don't get heated properly and regular circulation of lubricants

Set up a decent group pic while you're out there. It will be Alero of the month for July and there will be no voting on it. Just like in years past

Working dude!!
Big trip to Disney next year so that might be out too.
Was talking to the gf last night about it, and she's for the trip. Plus after 10 years of going out there, I know how to do the trip CHEAP!! I would like to bring the Delta like I said, but those MI highways, IDK if the Delta could handle those sppeds for that long. Might be me handling those speeds for that long.
Would be nice to cruise out with a "Classic Car" tag on the car in 2015
