Driving can be a mechanical means of getting from one place to another, or it can be an experience. I prefer the latter. I work from home and don’t have a daily commute, so every time I start the car up is a pleasure drive.

Heh, I used to think so until I started riding.. Once you get a motorcycle you never look at cars the same way again. The fastest, best handling street-legal car on earth can’t hold a candle to a $14,000 motorcycle as far as exhilaration goes, I would take a stock Hayabusa over an Enzo any day of the week, even if I didn’t have to insure or maintain it. Add a turbo and NO2 that will take that bike to 250mph or higher….

Frankly, I would probably be just fine with a half-ton pickup with a bed that could handle my bike, but the car runs so well, carries all my costco shopping and gets nearly 30mpg highway..
