環(huán)球之旅:帶你走進(jìn)美國10大怪異奇妙的地方 
      3. Cadillac Ranch, Texas: In 1974 the late, local eccentric millionaire Stanley Marsh planted 10 Cadillacs (vintage 1949 to 1963) headlights down in a deserted stretch of dirt outside Amarillo – and then moved them further out in 1997 because of town encroachment. The reason? He said he constructed what has come to be known as Cadillac Ranch (I-40 between exits 60 & 62) in a salute to Route 66, using cars he considered to represent the golden age of car travel. The accepted practice today is to leave your own mark on the art by drawing on the cars. Bring spray paint in case other visitors haven't left any around. Occasionally the cars get a makeover, like when they were all painted pink in honor of breast-cancer awareness. To get here, park along the south feeder road, a couple of miles west of Loop 335, and walk the well-worn path. As cool as it sounds, there's a sort of forlorn feel to the place.

      The ground ?round here seems to be fertile for growing cars – 18 miles east of Amarillo in Conway, there are five stripped-down VW bugs sprouting on Bug Ranch (Hwy 207 access road). Story goes that in 2002 the owners of a now-defunct convenience-souvenir store at the highway interchange wanted to attract customers and so built the roadside attraction in parody of the classic Cadillac Ranch. It didn't save the store, and the family has moved off, but the slug bugs in the dirt do attract attention. Again, feel free to leave your spray-painted signature. Both sights are visible from the 1-40 and accessible 24/7.

      德州 凱迪拉克牧場:在1974年后期,當(dāng)?shù)匾粋€古怪的百萬富翁Stanley Marsh,在阿馬里洛外的沙漠里種下了10個凱迪拉克的頭燈。然后由于鎮(zhèn)子的擴(kuò)張,在1997年Stanley Marsh把他們轉(zhuǎn)移到更遠(yuǎn)的地方。原因?Stanley Marsh說他建設(shè)這個被稱為凱迪拉克牧場(I-40,在60和62出口之間)的地方是要向66號公路致敬,他認(rèn)為這些車代表了汽車旅行的黃金時代。現(xiàn)在公認(rèn)的慣例是在那些車上畫畫,把自己的標(biāo)志留在藝術(shù)品上。帶著噴漆過來,以防其他旅客沒有留下。偶爾,這些車會被整個化妝,比如為了紀(jì)念乳腺癌意識把車都涂成粉色。要到這里,沿著南直線道路,環(huán)路335以西幾公里,沿著破舊的路走。像傳聞中那個酷,這地方有一中凄涼的感覺。

      這個地方的土似乎很適合種植汽車-在Conway,阿馬里洛東18公里的地方,有5個無裝飾的大眾車在臭蟲農(nóng)場(207號高速通道)萌芽。據(jù)說在2002年,一個現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)解散的便利品紀(jì)念品商店的主人們?yōu)榱宋櫩停阅7陆?jīng)典的凱迪拉克牧場建立了這個路邊景色。這并沒有拯救商店,家搬走了,但這些塵土中的懶蟲確實吸引了注意力。再一次提醒,不用客氣,留下您的噴漆簽名。這兩個景點從1-40和24/7都能看到。
