This is a product fully deserving of *zero* stars if Amazon had their rating system set up to give that score...if you didn't see the cover of the DVD case, you might thing this was a longggggggggggggggggggg and boringggggggggggggg infomercial for a certain hang-gliding, lightweight aircraft business located in NC, but you sure wouldn't think it was a "scenic" tour of the state...in fact, you see almost nothing of the scenic beauty that the state does possess, but you see a lot of trashy, side-of-the-road-tourist-trap type "scenery"...cheaply done, cheaply made...do NOT waste money on this thing. I'll never buy anything else produced by the makers of this product. Ever.
