I agree. In 1980, I drove my 1975 Celica from Annandale, VA to Orlando then to San Diego then to Eureka, back to San Diego and then back to Annandale.
I guess I did not get enough of that so in 1981, my brother drove my Celica and I took the 1967 Datsun roadster from VA back to San Diego. I only had two roadside repairs in the Datsun -- voltage regulator replacement in Roanoke and a slave cylinder replacement in South El Paso in 100 degree weather in a Church's Fried Chicken parking lot.
It adds a bit of excitement when part of the adventure is wondering if the car is going to continue running.
