The drive from NYC to Buffalo ? Heh I did it about 20 times over the course of 4.5 years. Let's just say 4 MetallicA albums start to finish got me through it each time. I hate driving in general now. Used to love it.

Let me know when you've done it for the 10th time and see if you still like it.

By the time I'm done driving 12 hours I want to run a foot race. I hate being confined to the car for such a long period of time and I'm always yearning to stretch my legs and be done with it.

:thumbsup:

I drive to Austin and San Antonio often from here. It makes all the difference to have a car with comfortable seats (Bonneville SSEi, as opposed to the Camaro I had been driving....).

Weekend road trips are great! I used to drive 700 miles one-way, once every 6 weeks to visit some friends of mine. I drove the whole way, with a few stops at rest areas to do some jogging, eating, etc.

 

[JDub02]

nope ...

i regularly drive the 400 miles home to visit my family. at 6+ hours each way in a weekend, it gets old fast, especially in a pickup.

now if i had something like a BMW or a Benz, maybe it wouldn't be so bad.

In general no. If I had to, it'd be bearable so long as the good music doesn't run out.

Ah, yes. That was the other thing I forgot. Comfortable seats, and several MP3 CD's full of music.

I drove 44 hours straight once. No joke.

man, not even rest for the night?

the longest I drove is from Austin to Dallas and back every weekend for a month to visit friends during the weekends. Still love it.

Audio book keeps me company.

I drive from Rochester to New York City and back a few times a month. Doesn't really bother me all that much. Takes me anywhere from 5-6 hours.

I was thinking of my 40G iPod + cassette adapter.

I like driving long distances yeah
recently drove from South Western Ontario to Weirton, West VA. that was a nice drive, pretty nice once we got close to VA (hilly)
I also made a few trips last year to Mt Tremblant Quebec and back.. that's a solid 8 hours.
