Oh! Wait.... it sucks to be you two because you have to get back to work. Sorry I even mentioned it. Stupid me! LOL

You guys are welcome to stop by Jet Hot and check out the toy box, we are right on I-40/85 just east of the I-85 split to Charlotte. Oh you can bring Payton along too, he keeps threatening to come by here but I have yet to see the whites of his eyes. We have a few Ferds for Rob but some are Chevy powered  If you have interest in stopping by pm me.
You can see some of the toy box in the background of this pic

Thanks Tim for the offer. We'll see if we can pencil it in. I'd like to see YOUR car as well.

If your traveling down in New Haven via 91 (you can still pick up 87 around NYC before it gets bad) Pepe's Pizza is a awesome place. Its in the top 10 in US all the time.

Word of advice don't fill up in CT our gas tax is out of control. Try to fill up in MA even if you don't really need it.

Thanks for the tips and recommendations, Nick.

Wonder if Google calculated that in when the 49 hours was estimated for travel time?  |
No clue on the gas tank size. That be including in over-planning IMO.
