I don't know if we'll be taking more than one of our T3s ( we have several in
the yard), the co-caravaning sounds great, but I know I'd drive the
lead-footed fellows CRAZY, as I've heard here many times the caravan can only go as
fast as the slowest car, and to listen to you fellas talk about your last cross
country trip to Idaho, I know I'd be the caboose! You'd all be smiling at me,
and then rolling your eyes and cussing under your breath when I wasn't looking.
:-P
I still have to see if I can arrange to take two weeks vacation time for the
drive, I haven't been able to take both weeks together thus far. Maybe I need
to get Darrell Waltrip to drive over and see the boss. :-) Don't know if you
get that Nascar T.V. commercial over there.
Isn't the seating compartment of the car still called a "cabin"? So it could
still be technically called "cabin fever"? Hmm... will have to ponder that
one. Maybe the "Are we there yet?" sybdrome.
