6 Hours in a coupe with a purse, jacket, bag of food, camera case, all down by my feet is cramped.

Great pics! Was there an offical registry? Since I'm bored I'd like to tally up all the horsepower present Is this why gas prices went up last week?

, but I wasn't going to say it...

I carry nothing in the cabin, ever, and encourage passengers to do the same. I put my jacket and briefcase in the trunk for the commute, even when I'm solo, just out of habit. As a convertible owner, you learn to leave nothing in the cabin, and it works better for the coupe as well.

The longest trip the G and I have made was about 3 hours, though. She had her shades and her iPod, so she was happy enough. Road-tripping will likely be more problematic. I like to make good time, but pull over for meals, drinks, etc. She wants to poke along at 55 (even when the limit is 70!), but doesn't want to stop.

When we were loading she kept packing shit in front of her feet, I just kept moving it to the trunk. She got a little upset at me when she found out I did move them, and when we stopped for gas grabbed a few of them. On the way home from Vegas she had it all up there, and even reached into the trunk while we were driving and got her headphones.

Did I mention this thing gets terrible mileage from one tank?!

What were you averaging? I've only got 2900 miles on mine, so the mileage is just now starting to get sane. I'm getting 15 in the city if I behave myself.

I think I was averaging around 22 on the freeway. City mileage sucks, since I cant contain myself.
