I thought it was a brochure when I ordered my free copy. It showed up yesterday and it is a book.

It takes a few weeks to get it, so don't get discouraged. I had forgotten about ordering mine when it showed up in the mailbox.

Hey! Hey!
Mine came yesterday. The guys were right, it's way better than I thought it would be. It's a pretty darn impressive freebie. Just don't get in a rush. I darn near re ordered when this thread started:)

I got mine a month or so ago and then I got another one about two weeks later. I cant remember if I ordered twice or if they may have sent out two by mistake...knowing me, I probably got impatient and re-ordered. I'm giving the second one to my mom who loves this kind of stuff as much as I do.
Mine probably took 45-60 days or so to get here....but I agree...its worth the wait.

back in the day they would send a book that was 5x7 and an inch thick with allo kinds of info on each byway, then a few years ago they switched to a book that was 3x7 and a lot thinner with less info. Now ya get a map, gave my big book to a traveler but still have one of the small ones.

I have a trip planned first week in June to Colarado so this book should be a good addition to my gear.

I got the map last night and will be changing my route to NM based on it. I can hit a couple of the byways without adding too many miles to the trip. Nice map but sure would have liked the book too.

I ordered one. In the mean time I pulled one of the trips off the web site that will fit in perfectly with a cage trip I am planning for June. I may sneak a Motocamp trip in to Florida between now and then. Have a brother in Lakeland and would like to take some photos down there.

I got this in the mail today. This is NOT a book. It is a simple foldout map, that is not very useful. Sorry but it's not really worth the trouble at all.

Yup, mine came today also. It's will actually make a nice wall hanger for quick reference. It is one of the nicest things my Federal Government has ever provided to me without directly charging me for it. It's a fine example of our Department of Transportation's use of the taxes that we pay when we purchase gasoline that is supposed to be for repairing our roads. I will apologize ahead of time for my sarcasm.
