Early 2000's and a co-worker and I are returning from a trip to the West Coast in July.
We make ATL but get weathered in, flight cancelled earliest next flight later the next day.
My sister lives in South Carolina so we decide to get a rental and stay with her then get up early for the trip back to Patuxent River.
We are not alone. By the time we get to Hertz the only few cars remaining were Town Cars, etc.
Best thing we ever did. Those things eat up the interstate in comfort and minus freezing a/c:cool:
Enjoy!

Bingo..for good old freeway flying, these boats have a lot to offer. I've done a lot of reading on the old days, pre internet, of pool hustling. The internet made it impossible for these guys to fly under the radar. Anyway, to a man, these road players would drive luxobarges. For the reasons listed above, for the large trunk capacity, and the wide seating, good flor sleeping. You can see a bit of this in the opening scene of "The Hustler"..."Fast Eddie Felson" and his road partner were driving a Packard.
