^Nice "location" Wheee haha

I used to live in NY and I actually miss the snow.

m4a1mustang · 02-04-2012, 07:50 AM

Though if it snows soon I might drive up to the mountains.

Yeah, I go out on random drives when Im bored. Def used to do it more when I was younger and had my 300zx though. I dont do it as often mostly due to gas prices. Just a short spirited drive can suck up A LOT of gas. But anyway I do enjoy random drives to nowhere just for the sake of being in my Z, its my happy place

My buddy always says to his wife... "You don't have to be awake, you just have to be there". Just something for you to think about the next time you wake up early....

Nice photos by the way.

Nice pics footloose

And that sucks about your apartment, maybe you can convince your GF to sleep in the Z with you that way when you wake up you can drive her to an undisclosed locattion and take care of that wood.

Cool pics! Love the Z next to the water like that!

We, my wife and I, are very prone to impromptu trips. Not usually at 4am, but we will wake up, pick a direction, and just head out for the day. Nothing better than spending some quality time with my 2 girls!

I constantly wake up at 4am, 4:30ish and sporting full on wood and I try getting the gf to get in the mood and she won't do anything because our walls are paper thin and our room mate hears every fart.

So I find myself 45min from home right now at Fort Myers Beach McDonalds eating my steak egg cheese bagel and a Starbucks drink I picked up on the way.

Does anyone take random spur of the moment drives?

No way are you the only one. If you wait until the bicyclists are up and awake, you are stuck.

It is the best time of day.

Sometimes I'll get inspiration to go drive. I enjoy doing it after Midnight in the dark. Cool air w/ the windows down...

My Z is like a Gremlin, I dont feed it after midnight, or even close. Crusing at night around me means deer hood ornament.

Early morning canyon runs when it's just you and the road...nothing better

wheee! · 02-04-2012, 03:49 PM

I told you the room under the deck stunk....

Footloose301 · 02-05-2012, 06:09 AM

Hahahaha

I love driving my car. Feels so great running around with the windows down and it's a huge stress reliever.

Thanks guys. Thought I was just crazy.
