    Default To FL and back in one day...im beat...

    I had to meet some guy in Valdosta but decided to go a bit further to make the deal happen quicker. Left at 2:45 and got back 10 minutes ago. Jesus. Driving with 2 hours sleep and a dog that wants to lick my tint off....not fun.

    I've never seen so many Indiana plates. It was one after another.

    I drive a semi truck for about 500 miles a day. I'm highly sure that your chair is much more comfortable than mine as your car is probably more comfortable than my truck. As for stopping every hour? Why are you beat? I drive, non-stop, from Atlanta to wherever.

    Not bashing you. Just giving you comparison. Later, QD.

    Mine probably drives easier, but not rides. Cus mine the "performance" package. So it has the stiffer shock on it so its a bit more bumpy. I used to drive all the way to NJ. Talk about a shit drive.

    No doubt. I left at 2:45am and sat in the same spot for about 40 minutes. On my way back, traffic was at a dead stop from Macon to pretty much ATL. WOWZERS.

    Think of how pissed you'd be if it was during your spring break and you're sitting in traffic.

    I guarantee your car has a much smoother ride than my truck, lolol. Later, QD.

    It does, but not nearly as smooth as what you have. It's very bumpy still and when you have 40 tons on your back, it makes for a very wild ride. Swaying a little, jerking back and forth. Later, QD.

    all those Indiana plates are the snowbirds heading back...you will see allot of Canadian ones too...thank god the season is almost over...sucks down here between Halloween and Mother's Day...all these assholes with attitude come down here and act like you owe them because they are helping support the economy...truth is they are just running away from the cold and snow for a few months and they are the lucky ones with money...FUCK THEM and their attitudes...nobody here in FL likes them...so glad the season is almost done...

    That ought to even out the fact that nobody in the rest of the US likes Florida drivers. The worst, by far, in the States.
