That's all I do. Cruise on suburban and country roads, take the wife for dinner, take my son to a cruise in, take it to the track...


But now it's in grandma's garage till Spring

Ditto. Mine only goes to the track, my parents house, or for a cruise. Otherwise it's in my garage.

I cruise mine on weekends only. I may drive to work a couple of times. I LOVE just cruising with nowhere to go. Just leave the house, drive around for a couple of hours then roll back home. Peaceful.

That's about all I do in mine is cruise. I won't drive it anyplace I have to park it and leave it. And it's hard to get out of once I start driving it because I'm so used to how weak the beater car is from driving it through the week.

I love running errands now - I just drop the top and cruise. Sometimes, I'll just drive to drive if it has been sitting for a few days.

The only time my Camaro ever sees the light of day is for the pure fun of driving it. The car's only purpose is for pleasure.

I did that at least once a week over the summer. drive out to the boonies and flog the **** out of it. I absolutely can't wait to do it again in the spring. Especially now that I think of all the new goodies going in.

Mines a DD and I take the long way to work almost every day. Often I'll cruise for an hour or two on weekend mornings at about 0700. Nice cup of coffee, good cigar, and whatever tunes sound right that day.

I go cruising fairly often. I was out most of the afternoon yesterday in fact. I just pick a direction and go. No destination in mind. Mostly back roads. My car somehow finds the twisty roads, lol. Every once in awhile I find a long empty stretch of road and go blasting down it.

It is the ultimate stress relief. Also sometimes when i am feeling down, people staring at my car is always uplifting.

3-4 times a week. I live, eat, work at school so it's the only time I get to drive/enjoy it.
