driving a lot

[LiLxKeNnY]

i drove from boston to chelmsford and then back to boston today. Boy was it a long drive. i drove for almost 2 hrz str8!!!!

i only have 2500 miles on my car. is this bad for my baby???
i dont know if it is me, but i feel it going slower after it.

any knowledge on this would be helpful.

Why would that be bad? It's a car, you have to drive it. 2 hours straight really isn't a long time, nothing to worry about. Try driving for 16 hours straight, from virginia to florida :p

have you had your first oil change? If not that could be why it's seems "slow". The EP burns alot of oil when you first get it, I belive they use some sort of "break-in" oil or some shit. I could be wrong but check your fluids once a week and get that oil changed if you havn't yet.

peace

driving long is when your damn CD player display says HOT and wont let you play CDs... now that sucks... ps... all on a drive for 1200 miles in 4 days

lol almost 2 hours straight. Dude I do that almost everyday. Try 7 hours straight from nothern California to southern California do'n 80-90 MPH in the SLOW lane on the interstate...I-5 is like the freak'n autobahn over here. People drive hella fast on it.

It probably feels slower cause you're just getting use to the car. Go drive a slower car for a few days then come back and drive your EP.

2 hours, that's it? :rolleyes:

Drive for 14 straight and I'll be impressed (Vegas to Colorado).

39 hours straight...from Phoenix, Arizona to Boston, Massachusetts...w/ 6hr sleep stop in Indianapolis. 2hrs is nothing...I make 2hr trips atleast twice a month.

hahahha... 2 hours straight. that ain't crap. i drive from phx, AZ to pomona, CA. EVERY 2-3 WEEKS!!! thats 385 miles, door to door, 5.5 frickin hours. all that just to chill with a couple of homies. heh

haha ... thanks for all the details people. it made me feel better. i was worried coz my car only had 2500 miles on it. still a little baby in the streetz.

eh... i dont kno the area you talkin bout, but im guessin you drove freeway, right? if so, you should trip... stop n go traffic puts way more stress on your car than freeway ever will... i wouldn't mind drivin freeway only to break in my car if i could, and a lil streets to wear in the clutch, tranny, and brakes
