"I love showing my husband around my home country, America. Driving is the best way to get a sense of the enormous spaces and landscapes. Last year, we drove around in a VW campervan for our honeymoon. Here he is taking in a vast expanse of open road and sky in eastern Oregon." Sarah George

No way, that's the famous Hawaiian "red dirt", they needed to keep that on the wheels for branding reasons.
