Description
Outside Amarillo, Texas on Route 66 is the Cadillac Ranch. Created in 1974 as a public art installation and sculpture of junk Cadillac automobiles buried nose-first into the ground. Cadillac Ranch is very popular and everyone is welcomed but make sure you bring spray paint and don't forget to take a picture, because whatever you create will only last a few hours.

Thanks - I had wanted to see Cadillac Ranch for years and finally got there. NOw I'm ready for another road trip - there's so much to see "off road".

Just outside Amarillo Texas home of the Big Texan 72 ounce steak on old Route 66 is The Cadillac Ranch. As I was walking up to the Cadillac’s I didn't expect to see them covered in graffiti with spray paint cans laying all about. There's a sign posted asking not to leave your empty spray paint cans but they are discarded all around the Caddies almost taken on as their own art form.
