Just one more lap

How many of ya'll feel like it's the end of the day and your driving your mini home or in my case from school and feel like you have to do just one more lap around the block or to take the long way home. or find any excuse just to motor in your mini's.

Oh I think just about anyone regularly active on this board would be wrong in denying ever doing it; most here would say they do it regularly.

Hey Green Goblin, I do this almost every day!

I should FINALLY be through the break-in this weekend - then I think my average gas mileage is going to go down a bit for a while...

It seems to be a regular thing for many that think the mini is something more than "just a car that gets me to work"

Just last week I took a little roadtrip for some beef jerky, 400 miles in total. I NEVER would have done that in any other car.

All the way I take the backroads wherever I go, and ironicly I took a 150 mile trip to Hiljie, Texas to get some beef jerkey took it nice and slow to enjoy the ride.
