Richard - Your one-way drive is like a long work day for me (so far averaging just over 1,215 mi/wk or about 175 mi/day). This past weekend was a 1,360 round-trip to Milwaukee for their Hybrid Gathering for this month (I won the award for the most miles driven). On the return about the last 400 miles were done in one stint give or take the one 4-minute stop for the co-pilot. No issues at all but you have to work *with* the car to find that perfect position for the headrest, knee-to-parking brake, seatback angle, etc. Trust me - put in a 400-mile day and those trips of 200 miles will be nothing at all (more of a long errand run).

Anahymbrid's trip to Seattle is definitely longer and much more scenic (I'm jealous). I am planning a Pittsburgh-Dallas trip in April which is 1,200 miles one-way so that will be my longest trip when it occurs. I'm hoping to hit 700 miles/tank on that trip also but we'll see.

--> Averaged 685 miles/week and 49.0 mpg in first year (35.7k miles from Aug 7, 2006 to Aug 7, 2007)
