Agreed, although I'm definitely not cool enough to own a convertible.

Being in my car is essentially my life.

What do you do for a living if you don't mind my asking?

RE appraiser.

Edit: soon to be a realtor as well.

I hate driving short distances (less than 5 miles), but I hate driving rediculously long distances (more than 80 miles without stoppings).

Driving with good tunes is always pleasant. If I'm driving in silence or crappy radio stations, it's just no fun.

Driving while eating, drinking, toggling a cell phone and changing songs on my mp3 player all at once while still maintaining perfect and alert driving skills is very satisfying as well. Though I don't do it often for obvious reasons.

I think when you work with computers all day and are usually having more than three going at once and also taking phonecalls hones multitasking abilities very well.

I like driving in general but I tire of the 80 mile round trip to work each day. The good thing is when I come home I can get my wife to drive in the evening or on weekends if I want so I can sit back and relax. On trips I take the wheel the whole way though or we would probably end up in BFE.

i enjoy driving. nothing beats the open road, music, and road food. (hot dogs and cheeseburgers with bones in the meat from your local arco station) yum. with the right music, i can stand traffic just fine. its also nice to bring along a portable dvd player when you have friends in the car.

Vehicle, traffic, who you're with... there's a lot that could swing it either way here.

 

[xSauronx]

hate it, absolutely hate it; i hate going to the gas station down the road, nevermind the beach or somewhere...just hate being in the car.

however

borrowing my dads cadillac makes it bearable

 

[Squisher]

Yes in the Camaro. Back and forth to work in my beater pickup truck? Only if the right song is playing on the stereo. In the Trailbazer? Almost never.

 

[BespinReactorShaft]

Depends on the reason for driving, the amount of traffic, familiarity with the route, and the vehicle. Overall it's nothing special.

 

[GTaudiophile]

I'm a Miata driver. What do you think?

 

[vi edit]

Only if it's for the purpose of enjoyment. Which is about 5% of my overall time spent behind the wheel.

Other than that, the other 95% of my 30,000+ miles a year behind the wheel are nothing but annoying.

 

[Azraele]

No.

 

[Stark]

i enjoy driving on good 4 lane roads (2 each way) with other competent drivers.

not so much in traffic or in places like texas or new mexico where the people drive like they're retarded.

 

[Supermercado]

Most of the time, yes. I hate traffic and idiot drivers and all that, but if I'm just driving around, it's good stuff.

 

[m2kewl]

you all hate city driving b/c you don't have gps. there's only traffic when it merges to the bridges/tunnels

on highways, i just turn on the v1 and let the tsx loose....wooohoo!

 

[Kenazo]

I like medium length drives (2 to 4 hours) on the open highway.

 

[RossMAN]

Yes but I hate driving at night when it's raining.

Oh yeah and I live in Oregon
