What type of car are you driving?: 
Harley Davidson's
Summarize your trip in a couple of sentences: 

We rode Harley Davidson's from the tip of South America (Ushuaia Argentina) back to the USA, and then on to the Arctic Circle (Alaska). We did the South & Central America portion of the trip as a charity fundraiser and raised $500,000 for several charities. The first half of the trip took a little over 2 months from Ushuaia Argentina back to Kansas City. And then last year (2014) we rode on to the Arctic Circle, north of Fairbanks, which took about 2 weeks. www.MilesWithAMission.org

2003 Honda Civic, stick shift, 2-door, 1.7 L engine.

I got the driving bug at the Mongol Rally, a semi-organized adventure in which participants drive a car with a maximum one-liter engine capacity from England to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

Do you have any advice for others who may be considering driving the Americas?: 
You can do it in a Honda Civic! But if you want to go to a lot of small places, especially in the rainy season, consider a four-wheel drive. Also – speak Spanish, as much as you can, all the time, even if you are terrible at it.
