Road trip from Chicago to Naples and back
Happy to report we took the car from the suburbs of Chicago to Naples, FL drove it around for the week and then back home with zero issues, 3,200 miles. This is exactly what I expected from the car and was not disappointed. I posed my grandson like I was teaching him how to work on the car. Should be a good picture when he is older 😂. We even snuck in a visit to the museum (day after the bash 😒. So I hope this positive post will help balance out the cars that don’t cooperate.

good to hear, I doing Ft Laud to Philly this wed, with a stopover in S Carolina wed night…. I’ve done it a few times in my C7, looking forward to this trip. I’ve activated the Wi-Fi hotspot for just a month along with the safety and security plan so I get a Geo fence when I’m at the hotel. Going to use my semi transparent noise blocking earbuds connected to my phone if I get tired of the tire drone.Gonna keep some munchies warm in the rear area for the trip.
after a post here, using a suction cup hook on the rear glass behind the passenger seat, I was able to easily hang a hanging bag with four dress shirts in it no problem.

Drove my '23 from just north of Dallas to Portland, Oregon, thence to Olympia, Washington, over to Sioux Falls, SD, then home -- 4,678 zero-problem miles...

Excellent news that the car was flawless on your trip and that your grandson got to join in on the fun.
