Not very comfortable, unless you get road head, then it'll be fine.

depends on two things really... can you have the top down, and how wide is your ***. If its narrow enough to fit in the seat, and you can put the top down (or at least have enough cabin space to put it down if you wanted), then you should be fine

thats why i have the metro for road trip comfortable and well the 3 cylinders use 1/3 the amout of gas my tII used if not a 1/4. it also has house speakers for music so when u finally get it up to 80 and the things shaking so bad that u think every bolts gonna vibrate out of its hole u can still lisen to the radio in excellent quality and theres always gas, gas, and of course road head. at least the thing runs good while the tII is down and it was FREEEEEE!!!

I made it vert wasnt to bad more comfortable then some other cars ive drove on long trips. Gas was bad though i filled up when it almost to a quarter which was about 4 times. Im guessing it cost about 80.00 total. Im in maysville which is close to jacksonvile. Funny thing is i did about 90-95 whole way and twice the car in front of me got pulled over and not me haha.

how many miles were u going between refills? I can get about 300 per tank in my vert... very far beyond that and fuel sloshing causes the engine to lose power when turning and accelerating, but thats driving it til the needle is resting securely on the E

i was stopping about every 150 miles and that was filling at half so im getting about as good as you roughly. I realized while on the way though i really need an air filter so i stopped and got one in town today, that should help out some. I had some crotch rocket try and race me earlier so was funny just screwing with him.
