No where to go.
It's a beautiful day here in Iowa today and I'm wanting to go for a ride. It could be the last day till spring to do it. I've only had this car since March but I have put a few miles on it this year really just going nowhere. My question is does anybody else drive their car just to drive it with really no place to drive it to. Should I feel guilty about doing that putting miles on it for no real reason. What are your thoughts I'm curious to know.

Put miles on it. No point in having it if you don't drive it IMO. My Z is a DD until this weekend... now away for winter (more about grimy roads than anything yet).
Enjoy it, rack up the miles.

You really don't have to have a reason or destination to go to in order to get behind the wheel and go for a drive. Countless others have done it.

Absolutely. My wife says it's cheaper than Prozac. Lol. I just go for a drive now and then. On special weekends we get some track time. Great reason to live in Phoenix. This is an all year car here.
