I have made this trip at least 4 times now to visit a very special person in my life and my car has made it so easy. Most of the time I make one stop along the way but one time I did do the complete trip in one day.
What other car can go almost 1100 miles on two tanks of fuel ? If I start in Marion NY with a full tank, I fill up in Elkhart IN at the Milepost 92 rest stop where the fuel is cheap and then I can make it all the way to Woodbury MN.
It took 19 hours of driving but my car makes it ooh so comfortable. If you don't have the crushed velvet cloth seats, I pity you. The cold weather package really helps on the winter trips and the 6 changer CD Monsoon package makes long trips easy. Too bad IPod's weren't invented back then, would love to get a Monsoon 2009 upgrade and get MP3 capability. Stupid question to car companies - if you want to make some money, why not have your stuff mounted to a mounting rack in such a way that your sound systems can be hot swapped ? Drive in, get the "latest" for that year, and drive away.
How many cars do you know where you can drive 19 hours and not get out totally in pain?
Yes, this was all on my own - and yes I stop frequently for short stretch breaks and food/bathroom/etc
