I just did a 10hr day trip from Edmonton to Banff and back and the car was great. Not many high performance cars get this good for comfort.

I drove mine from RI to Jannetty Racing in CT to have the JRE Street Package installed, it was about 2 Hours each way, the ride home was awesome with the newly installed Dynatech LT's and Corsa Exhaust

Did that drive last year when I took the kids on a cruise. Very easy drive, just make sure your not around Dallas at rush hour times. It would have been funner if I was in the Camaro though.

The trip to C5Fest and back was very comfortable

Wow, you let dogs in your Camaro. You must really love them dogs. I love my dog, but the is no way in hell he is steeping his paws in my Camaro and putting his nose prints all over my windows. I have a Chevy S-10 that he is welcome in.

Since buying the Camaro my son (14 next month) and I have been planning our first father/son road trip. Going from Colorado to St Louis to Chicago to Minn and back again.
Can't wait!

The C5Fest trip was a really comfortable drive.

Do you guys know if OnStar can work across borders? Cuz i live in Canada, but I want to drive down to the states =o. I don't want to be cut off especially if im in unknown territory XD.

One year ago today I took delivery of my Camaro, having never seen it in person, sat in it, or driven it....

We picked it up in Virginia (my friend is a Chevy dealer there)....the next day we drove back home to New York, approx 300+ miles...

I have a bad back, so I was a bit concerned about a car I had never been in and how comfortable it would be...

I have to say, this is by far the most comfortable car I have ever driven, or been a passenger in(not very often...lol..)and the heated seats feature is the 'icing on the cake'...

The ride is smooth too...I have absolutely NO REGRETS at all.....

I am glad the Camaro got such a great write-up...

HeatherR · 05-19-2010, 07:23 PM

I've been telling you guys this for a long time

Many of you didn'y believe me at the time!

We drove from Oshawa to Marco Island FL (by way of MI for a stop) in the snow! Christmas 2008

Two runs back and forth to Miami to visit family (and stock up on Cuban food

)

Two adults and a dog and a trunk full of 2 weeks worth of stuff (and Christmas presents!)

We do the drive every year (from different starting points depending on where we are living) and this was the best road trip we have ever had. Very comfortable and great memories!

This year will be a CTS-V and I bet it won't top the road trip down in the Camaro

Another award for this bad-ass car. Many more to come.

ajs69cam · 05-19-2010, 08:26 PM

Almost a year now and we've gone from TX to NM-AZ-CA and back to TX--

Then LA-MS-AL-GA-FL and back to TX-- Will be leaving for NM soon--

Over 20900 miles and we've enjoyed everyone of those miles!!!

Great comfort and MPG from N. VA to western NC and back 800+ miles.

motorhead · 05-19-2010, 09:11 PM

Doesn't surprise me at all. We love taking ours on long trips. I like that more than running it hard.
