Yesterday some were driving around in a Lexus and a few were stuck with their two or three year old Mercedes. At least one is hitting the trail northbound on Interstatete 25 through Colorado at high speeds iin a late model silver Porche. Most American Indians are seen in an earlier Model Rord F-150 pickup in Oklahoma, New Meixco, Colorado or Arizona.
