Do you ever think that you need to have a longer drive to work?
Yesterday I was on my way in to the office ...just enjoying the drive...
Well I get to the office..and im in the parking lot and start to think...man .. :bang: I hate to get out of my car...but I get out and cant help but give it the " Long Look Back"
How many of us do that?

I do that too. I always park waaaaay out in the parking lot. I walk to a store or wherever and turn around and look a couple of times on the way. This car is definantely alot of fun to drive.

Just give it time, most everybody at sometime is running cross metro or from far away. Why else to we have all these traffic jam ups?

my commute is perfect.....30 miles of open highway. I'm actually working today! Had a nice drive down I 295 with the topdown (and the heat on) I wouldn't want a longer commute, but a reserved parking space would be nice!

I drive 3.5 miles to work so I know what ya mean. I sometimes take a long leisurely way home just to enjoy the car. Even after a year, I still have to take a couple looks back at it when I park.

my work is only 1.3 mile, 4 minutes in the worst traffic. but when i get there -- its a trip to the 5th floor in a ramp that just screams SLP -- SLP, LOL, more fun leaving at night...louder safer faster no people, just me and my noise. but thats cuz i stay in a motel all week. i get to go 70 miles home on friday. so my monday ride to work is 70 miles. guess i got the best of both worlds...

Know what you mean.however, with gas prices I am glad that my work is only 7 miles away.I'd rather be driving longer distances to a fun destination.WORK is a 4 letter word for me

I'm only 1.7 miles from work. There is a solution. I've managed to put on 2,700 miles in a little over 3 months!
Sometimes I just......drive.
