800 mile roadtrip

Well it's a matter of taking my only car. The other car I own is a 65 dart GT, and it doesn't run yet. That one was a full restore, and it needs finishing up. It doesn't run, it doesn't stop, and it doesn't have engine cooling.

If I borrowed a car from family, I have the choice of a 2017 F150 which is a total piece of kit, and a 2009 Escape which is a good car but has been abused to hell and never maintained.

If you do the math, renting a car might just be cheaper, the better mileage often covers the cost of the rental. It is the extra days that sometimes make it not practical.

I look at my barracudas as my cars, borderline daily drivers. Sometimes I like to take the "car" as a change of pace over my late model truck (my only "new" vehicle).
