The longest i have driven my evo was 4 hours to the jersey shore and back. The evo is so much fun to drive, that's why i bought it, but there is no way i could ever enjoy driving the car everyday.

Flew to Cedar Rapids Iowa to pick up my WW Evo IX and drove it 20 hours straight to Rochester New Hampshire where I live. Longest ride of my life! I was so afraid something was going to happen to the car. It was somewhere around 1300 miles!
