    Default Do you???

    Do you ever just jump in ur car and cruise around.. not having a destination or hang out or even meeting up with ppls. Just find a place that has great scenery or just to drive?

    I used to before I started driving everywhere so much that I can use an entire tank of gas in a day.

    Yes I do. I find that it relaxes the nerves if I've had a stressful day. And sometimes, I don't even listen to the radio when I cruise. I'm so in love with my exhaust tone that just the sound of it alone at a cruise is enough to keep me content. I'll just turn on the cuise control and do the minimum speed limit around atl just because. Such a great feeling. BTW, I get 28mpg when I'm not on it. who cares if it's a waste of gas. It's gonna get burned anyways. Besides, I have 2 other vehicles. I'll do the same in my truck too

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    All the goddamn time. I remember using one entire tank of gas one night. I was graduating the next day and I drove down to the V, cruised Atlantic Station, then went up to Mall of Georgia and back home. I was on a bad ECU so I was dumping a lot of gas, about 240 miles in one day I put on my car and 1.5 tanks of gas.

    I would because it's fun to me, but its not a good idea to put miles on your car when you are trying to sell it.

    No, but it's locked up in a safe place. I didn't need it this week anyway...every place I need is within walking distance. One week's worth of miles not on my car...no fuel expenditure!

    True...damn, must get boring though. You've made it sound like you live in the middle of nowhere. I don't know what else I'd do...I mean I suck at golf.

    Back in Memphis, I would do it all the time. I always drove around late at night, since I have no AC and I love being one of the only cars on the street. A nice late night cruise is one of the best stress relievers / ways to think heavy things out IMO.

    Once I know Athens and the area better (and I have gas money), I might be lucky enough to continue that pasttime.

    On a related note... My parents told me that back in the day when they couldn't get me to go to sleep they would drive me around in the car for a little while... so i started this out of the womb son.

    driving the miata with the top down at night relaxes the hell out of me. its worth the gas (it gets like 30mpg anyways).
