Ian McGaughey provided these comments about driving Texas State Highway 118 during the making the 2002 road trip documentary “Looking At America.” This still image is taken from the video.
“Maybe it was the sunshine, or maybe because I was looking forward to getting to Big Bend National Park in southwestern Texas, but I remember getting on Texas State Highway 118 and thinking that it was one hell of a great driving road. With gentle dips and curves framed by grassy shoulders and wide-open views, it was one I could really open up the Crown Vic’s V8 on.”
