Depends on who is counting the mpg and the context. Is it highway...is it city driving. What kind of petrol one is consuming.

and if the car is african or european. are you driving with a load properly or not properly tied down. were there show tunes being sung? there are so many variables.

I actually prefer driving. We used to fly for vacation every year, be it Florida or Aruba or California and every time we flew one or both of us would end up sick during the damned vacation

Since 2008 or so, we've pretty much done the East coast. We've done Florida three or four times, DC/Williamsburg once and OBX once. The FLA drive is a bit of a chore, but if planned right and splitting the driving it's not bad at all

i hate flying with a (frank)ing passion. the experience, unless you're going rock star status, awful. i don't mind driving, but the location will pretty much dictate the method of travel.

Will any phantoms games be televised?

If you get center ice you may want to try hockeystreams.com. It's online of course & u can stream it with roku. OB recommended it and I loved it. Most AHL amd CHL games are available.

We have a Honda Pilot and it's great for that aspect, though I'd have preferred something bigger

We took an 8 day trip, had 4 suitcases(2 large ones) and several other bags and fit fine in our Chrysler Pacifica, which is basically a glorified station wagon.

My father in law recently got a Toyota Landcruiser...I liked that a lot, but he's got every friggin' extra and paid around $40K.

I got fairly little kids who eat on the way to soccer & softball...I'm not getting something that expensive until they realize they need to put the lid on their damned chocolate milk

Barkeep! Get this man a trough of Spritzer. And you, Cowboy Guy, what do you wanna drink?

I can't help it...I'm weak. Also bored. Can't sleep and I'm watching RED 2, with Bruce Willis, Malkovich and Helen Mirren. I;d rather be unconcious

I hear you. We drove a very long ways with 3 little kids and the back of my truck looked like a tornado hit romper room

Yeah, Central Florida is about the farthest I'll drive. We discussed Toronto, but the kids were not too keen about the GTA. We might do Nashville one year. I'd drive that, too.

I rented a steam cleaner after Disney. It was like Three Mile Island back there.

We have that as the "family car"...from like 2008 probably. Solid piece of machinery. Drives nice too. Would recommend.

When I actually lay down I'm going to listen to music. My wife got me a new Gershwin CD a few weeks back & I just put it on the iPod yesterday. I always have some tunes on when I go to bed. Last night's playlist was Johnny Cash and Robert Johnson.

I don't know what Arby's chicken dipping sauce is made of, but I believe you could use the stuff to patch a hole in your boat.

My buddy at work has one. He loves it. Trouble is, my wife has issues when the car is going backwards

Me too. I have an iHome alarm clock with a sleep function. It's glorious.

I've been binging on (pardon my hipsterness) Half Moon Run's album for like the last week or so. I've always loved one of their songs, Unofferable, but never really listened to the album all the way through- or at least never got into it- until very recently great stuff. Kind of Indie/mellow...good stuff would recommend.

In all seriousness, that website is a godsend for me. All the issues I have up here trying to catch games were solved
