Rich Truesdell writes an absorbing travel blog at AutomotiveTraveler.com. One of my favorite stories is his account of touring in Italy in a vintage Fiat 500. The tour is like a road trip to the past, driving through picturesque towns in the rural foothill. Rich writes:

If you’re looking for a unique way to explore the region, we have a suggestion for you: tour Abruzzo behind the wheel of a vintage Fiat 500, the classic Cinquecento. With the earliest versions now more than 50 years old, the 500 is the car that a little more than 10 years after the end of the Second World War truly put Italy on wheels.

The post at Automotive Traveler contains loving descriptions of great food and relaxing lifestyle. It certainly makes you want to visit the area and enjoy the beautful views and taste the delicious food by yourself.

Another great story at AutomotiveTraveler is Richard’s compilation of his 10 best road trips. Pretty awesome routes there.

It will be interesting to see what Tripsayers will be saying about the places mentioned in the AT’s articles. I collected the places in the “Touring in Italy” story to a dedicated group for easy access. You can find the group at http://www.tripsay.com/groups/Touring Abruzzo
