-Little over 300 mi drive home to FL same day (I detoured N 15 miles to bring an R to DACULA Georgia since close to Halloween) making it DRACULA.

About 800 total, I drove 400 miles in a rental dodge charger then drove the distance back in the CTR same day. I remember thinking how funny it was people were complaining about the long trip seat comfort. In comparison to the Charger the CTR was SUPER comfortable, my back was aching more on the way there then on the way back home. All the dealers within a 400 mile radius were charging at least 3k over MSRP. I have a dealer a mile away but laughed at them and hung up when they quoted me 44k before taxes+fees. "You have to understand these cars are very rare and we can't sell them for less cause our customers would be able to make money on them." LMFAO

I hopped on a 90 minute flight from DFW to New Orleans., Uber’d from the airport to the dealership, and drove it 550 miles back home, all in about 12 hours total. It was a very memorable trip and would totally do it again.
