    well if someone takes me down there then they will follow back, but if it breaks down or does something crazy that is unfixable off the side of the road i'll kick myself... it would be better to, of course, drive it around down there for a little bit and feel it out and then tow it back i think, and then if something stupid is going to happen it will be on my turf so i will know where to go.

    haha touche!!, idk... something can always go wrong... its as perfect as a real world car can be which means there is always a possibility of something going wrong when driving a very straining and unusual 700 miles.

    nah i have never driven that far... i drive to smyrna TN fairly regularly which is about 4 and a half- 5 hours and i've had my truck break down about half way and the sol broke down on me and i know how bad it sucks when you know that no one you know is within reasonable time from you.

    granted i would be with probably 3-4 additional people on this trip, i just cant afford to turn a 2 day trip into a 6-7 day trip due to a car problem because of school and work and so on... so i am on a tight schedule haha... in and out.
