The 4,000 mile trip just began.
With 2006 Sienna FW Limited.
The first camping site is the Pine Ridge Recreational Area of Mark Twain National Forest. This is very good free camping site.

On the way up to the summit of Mt. Evans in Colorado.
The Mt Evans was so tall I got altitude sickness. I felt tired, the motor reaction was slow, and a little bit of headache. We left the summit, and the symptoms was gone when we reached the lower altitude.

Gas station in the middle of Wyoming. Talked to a senior who was eating at the restaurant in the building, this small village was a uranium mining town. Many miners got the pulmonary tumors. People left, and only a small number of the people still live here. It looked like that the Senior enjoyed having someone to talk to.

Stayed at the Colter campground of Grand Teton NP. This is a first-come, first served campground. The mountains seen from the Colter bay. So far, the BFG AT KO2 TIRES are very capable on an FW drive Sienna. They went through all national forest dirt road, unpaved roads without hesitation.
The feature in the Sienna Limited I appreciated most in this long road trip is the dynamic cruise control, it greatly reduced the stress put on the driver on a long, long road trip.

Fixed a coolant leak at the coolant overflow tank at Autozone parking lot. (Added on 03/12/2021: This should be the small leak at the radiator plastic side area, but I did not appreciate it at the time).

There was free campground nearby. (GPS:
GPS: 38.717797, -109.689383). This was the first time I felt scared at night at this free campsite even though I did have the self defense tool on me. There were few campers around, and the area was so big.

A planned 4,000-mile trip ended up with a 7,000-mile, 54-day trip.
The Sienna worked really well in this trip.
