What about rail? :) CNM :hi5:
I only took 4 legit train trips(other than mass transit systems). Chicago-Milwaukee, Chicago-StLouis. Tokyo-Aomori, and Zurich-Hannover. It's really under-rated for certain situations.

Depends on the distance, but I'd almost always prefer flying despite the hassle because it's faster, and I get super bored when travelling really long distances. Plus I'm not the greatest highway driver...:tiptoe:

Driving, definitely. I don't care if it takes longer. I LOVE road trips. I like seeing all the cool new stuff in the places I pass through. I also like to take the train, if I can afford it. (still costs hundreds less than flying)

When going long distances which do you prefer?

Driving can be cheaper but takes significantly longer.

if you play your cards right it is almost always cheaper to fly. Went to NYC out of O'hare on a normal jet. 250 round trip for going off peak hours and peak days. you will spend more driving than flying plus i got there faster than ron jeremys cum shots.

I think it's also fair to say that if I was going somewhere that wasn't that far away I might prefer the train over driving. Schedule's a little more inconvenient, but it's loads cheaper.

Only flown 3 times in my youth. Chicago to Pennsylvania, then Texas to Chicago, then Texas to Kentucky. Each was round trips. So 6 times if you want to be technical. Loved it. But now, doubt it, considering all the extra hassle and additional bullshit charges. Would depend on distance though to be honest. If Im headed to say Vegas, then I'd fly. To Chicago, I'd just drive.

I like driving because i just like seeing new things but sometimes you dont have the time to drive. Ive drove from SoFla to CHI a few times and love it. Soon i want to take a road trip down the west coast.

The OP
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles are all good with me.

Depends on the circumstance but my favorite is the car ride. You get the best scenery, better than most rail lines and it's quicker than a train. A plane trip is swift but there is a lack of adventure and fun in that route. I've taken all three patterns from Chicago to Boston back and forth over the last 3 years.
