Has anyone done any long road trips? Like a couple of 8 hour days in the car? What's the ride like after hours on the road? What about the seats...Recaros or cloth, not the width but comfort for a road trip car? What about "highway drone"?

I drove from NM to CA last week. Drive wasn't bad, seats are good but after 12 hours of driving any seat will suck. Drone isn't bad, I had the radio on the whole time though. In in cloth seats btw

My only complaint was the cruise control would not get out of boost half the time. When I drove the old fashioned way my mpg went up to 32

I had the sat radio on, lol. I didn't care what the motor was doing would be cool to watch with the cobb though.

Ya, that's what I was doing most of the time, just staring at the AP lol

Okay, I have had the first and second generation Cobb units. What is there about he 3rd is there that I would sit and watch it? Thanks for the replies!

Up to 6 gauges displayed on the AP screen at once or various other configurations if I recall

Colin you wouldn't happen to drive an OX White fiesta do you? I swore I saw a white fiesta ST on the 8 Freeway. It could be someone else and maybe a non fiesta.

Any "old" people taken any trips?

I'm 30 and have taken this thing on two longer road trips. First one was 7 hour (each way) stint down to Tennessee and the most recent was a 4 hour there and 6 hour return trip to NJ for the holidays. The trip to NJ i can the little car packed with to the max along with two decent sized dogs in there. Sometimes over expansion joints the car can get a bit choppy, but that's expected b/c of the short wheel base. Overall it does great on the trips. My one complaint is the stiff suspension, it has a tendency to "crash" over large bumps/dips and such vs absorb them. Small price to pay for how fun it is to drive. I use a lot of cruise control on the trips and have averaged about 30mpg on both.
