  • Dude...you filmed on my birthday...so freaking cool, and in my home city too

  • Ha! how about that, cool

  • I was just listening to some Satriani myself when I put up this video :)

    Great tour again, but it's kinda weird to have an outer beltway that's so far inside the urban area of Atlanta nowadays.

  • Thanks.

    When I-285 was first built (1957-1969) it wasn't considered part of the urban area, Atlanta's growth has just exploded in the last 30 years.

  • lol he called you a road geek. :[) are you guys talking about at 1:41?!@$%#(%

  • Roadgeek is a term us highway enthusiasts refer to ourselves and each other as.

  • That's me exit 3.

  • Another home run for Freewayjim.

    So, you mentioned the GM plant. I was assigned there during the last ever product launch at Doraville assembly.

    I had a house on Peachford Road, 2.5 miles from the plant. When I moved in late '06 the real estate market was still largely vibrant and had no trouble in selling. (three weeks and it was gone)

    Watching your video essays on the metro Atlanta environs makes me homesick for a place where I lived for a bit over 2 years.

    Thank You Very Much.

  • and I can't wait till I get my Porsche restored and over here...I'd love to cruise down these roads.

  • Yeah, it's been knocked down totally -- the Ford plant in Hapeville.

  • 160 miles? You certainly did an impressive amount of driving in one day!

    Too bad to hear the GM plant in Doraville closed, as I didn't realize that plant had closed. OTOH, I'm not completely surprised to hear it closed, since GM has been closing more and more plants down in the last few years, such as one that operated in Janesville, WI. I also knew Ford closed a plant in south Atlanta a few years ago.

  • Wow I just noticed this was posted on my bday thanks FJ
