We have done the trip from Windsor Ontario up through Quebec into Labrador and stayed at the Manic V overnight and enjoyed the trip right through to Goose Bay/ Happy Valley where we caught the Coastal Ferry down to Cartwright and on to Newfoundland in 2001, Went back up the reverse from home through the Cabot Trail, Nova Scotia, Basq Ferry ( 5 and 1/2 hour boat ride) to Newfoundland and crossed at Red Bay to the mainland Labrador another hour and 1/2 on the ferry.. We then drove the new road ( since 2009 ) to Cartwright and St. Mary. The road was gravel and again like someone said, slow is the key but when we got to Cartwright we found the ferry was not in service yet due to "growlers" small icebergs were late leaving and this was the first 3 weeks of June that we were there.. The road from Cartwright to Goose Bay was not finished at that time.There was a barrier up with the proposed finish date. We are told it is finished now , actually the end date was 2012. We are leaving this summer, first week of July, to do the trip up through Quebec, Labrador and drive down the NEW road to Red Bay and ferry over to Newfoundland again. BTW, we drive a Roadtrek and find it has no problem on those roads. I don't know what a big A would be like
