This is me -- 5'10", short legs and long torso. I have a different aftermarket seat, but agree that the proportions make all of the difference in how the seats fit and feel. I have sat in mine for 14+ hours (less gas breaks every few hours) and felt perfect, while others want to jump out after...
Have a great trip. I went SF Bay Area to Boston and back in mine with no problems. Longest day was 950 miles with no problem. Do oil change, brake check, fluids and go. Post up tripmm
Hit the shack shack at JFK last September - nice change for airport food.
Best of luck to yours as well!
My youngest is in an apt for her junior year as well and we shipped her car out last semester.
The route out was the straight interstate 80/90 blast. Stopped in Elko, NV, Salt Lake City, UT (had nice dinner and relaxed for much of the day), Lincoln, NE, Detroit, MI, Syracuse, NY, and Boston, MA.
You will have a great time - is this for first drop off?
Iceland was with my younger daughter! Yes I love the trips as well. Hoping the younger daughter will want to do the same thing in two (maybe 3) years when she graduates.
The time will pass before you know it. I did 2,500 miles in January with my younger daughter (she is going to be a junior in college) and it was a blast. My older suggested the road trip from college about 9 months ago and I knew I had to make it happen.
Enjoy every minute while they are young.
Returned home from a 15 day road trip, of which 13 were spent in the FZJ80. Covered about 7,500 miles from California to Boston and back, spending one leg with my wife , one with my younger daughter and the bulk with my recent college grad!
Leaving Boston loaded to the top:
Badlands...
Big shout out to LS1FJ40 for this find! Sent fronts and rears for update and color change - I have black seats. Turn around was less than a week and they look and work perfect! Took for a 900 mile trip this week and could not be happier.
