I ask because I am preparing for a road trip in March from Michigan to south Georgia. My drive will take approximately 16 hours. Did you track your mileage for the highway? |

Gaswise its no big deal at all..to fill the tank u'll pay around 33$ I would say (almost everytime) but u never know, one time I filled it for 25ish$, I had to take a pic of that lol..And ull have to fill it aproxymately 4 times. Here are a few advises I learned from that trip: 1/ make sure you get enough sleep before you bounce 2/ Before you leave decide if its better for you to drive at night or during the day, here are the pros and pros: DAY: visibility, sun light, safer...cons: depending on how luky u are, u might hit a lot of traffic ( which happened to me on my way to Miami. NIGHT no traffic, i didnt see a single cop car, but its dark and u have to be careful with the animals on the side 3: MAKE SURE U DONT DO IT ALONE? IT MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE 4/use the M button all the way, it barely makes a difdference in gas milage, and its much better because of the stiffer handling. 5/ VERY important and u probably know it already, use the cruise control,it makes it so much easier(with your foot always on the brake of course, u never know) Now i dont know what type of driver u are, but here is another adcise I learned from the trip, don't try to fight the GPS arrival time too much, he's usually the winner. Sometimes it makes u think that by speeding a bit over the limit, you start gaining time, but i promise you ll end up wasting it somwhere else, and u feel kind of dumb when u get home and u feel that u took all these risks for nothing. I sticked at a truk's ass ho was speeding like crazy, it was so hard to keep up, because there was a lot of fog, but aparently thats a trick i didnt know, the guy was speeding a lot as soon as the fog was back, so i was doing like 100, 110 for a long time, and I reduced the arrivel time from 1pm to 8am, and guess when I arrived 1pm. (anyway by doing so, makes u a lot more focused which makes u tired quicker) Hope this is useful, I usually don't write long ass messages, but when it comes to cars road trips, safety etc... its a different story Drive safe, and let me know |

They do a good job there... plus they wash many exotics, but the driveway is overly steep. I've gone there a few times when I'm staying on SoBe when I need a clean car for the evening.
