Do I drive or fly?
So, I have to travel to Orlando, Florida from central South Carolina on business in the middle of March. I always fly, but I guess I could drive this time. Of course, my Arctic White mistress has just spent a very sad, depressing, and lonely winter in a cold, barren detached garage. She misses the human touch; of that, I am sure. Do I fly and leave her alone yet again? I am conflicted....

I just went from VA to FL and back in my GS a few weeks ago
Don't stop at public rest stops
or
you will have to talk with everyone and you trip will be
about 3 hours longer

My wife and I are going to Melbourne Florida in May for 2 to 3 weeks from South Jersey. We are planning on taking "The Vette". My suggestion would be if time allows it........take the vette!

Part of the joy of ownership of great cars is talking with people about them...
...when people find out you're one of the nice Corvette owners, rather than "the other kind" - they go away with smiles and stories and the next time someone says, "Corvette owners are snobs and jerks... they'll say, "Not all of them. I met the nicest....:"
Always be an ambassador for our cars....

Can not think of any good reason not to drive it.

It's not like you are snowed in or anything.

Drive it. My father lives in Sumter, SC and I've taken my C6 and my C7 Z to his house a few times. It's about an 8 hour drive for me. I-10 to I-95.

Long drives beat a Sunday morning run for coffee.

Drive unless you own your own plane.
In the event you run into a tsa agent or a flight attendant that decides they don't like you, you could very well end up in jail though no fault of your own. All the rights you think you have are totally suspended in an airport and on an airplane.
