Me and my dad went to 3 differant private homes looking for my 400ex, the first one was about 3 hours away from our house. In between that place and the other places there was about 1 hour drive. On the way home I decided to get a new one.:D

to pick up my 300ex we drove 10 hours there and back (5 up, 5 back) and then for my 400ex we only had to go about 20 mintues for it from my house :p kinda funny when you think about it...

Well.. My mom drove for 8-10 hours to get my 400ex, she doesnt let me drive... something to do with she gets scared when I drive... I don't know why she does like me doing donuts when shes in the Jeep. I got my 300 delivered no driving time, I was called out to unload a truck full of beef at 8:30pm pitch black out, and he climbed into the back of his truck and pulled out a quad! **** ya!

I think we drove about a total of 16-18 hrs for my 250R. From the northern part of NC to the southern part of georgia. Cost me too much, but I wanted the R bad. When it was said and done, it proably cost me 4-500 dollars more. WHY? I payed for the truck we rented, I paid for all the gas and food. On the way home I was driving, and a dam mexican rearended me and sped away, so I had to pay the 200$ dollar deductible from our insurance. I paid 3200 for the R, but it cost me alot to get it, should have just had it shipped, but I wanted to look at it first. Oh well, Ive lost money all my life.

I had to pick up my 250r 15 hours away, 15 hours there, and 15 hours back, i live in mississippi and had to go all the way to michigan. Best part of it, my trusty best friend (MrP) picked it up for me on the way to the Red Bud National, it was worth it, his trailor broke down and i ended up payn for half of the cost for trailor but he wouldnt hav taken the trailor if he wouldnt have been pickin up my new R, the crazy things we do for these things.

I drove 1hr each way for my R. My CR250 came from the other side of the country, lol (ohio, i'm in oregon). But I had that shipped to a Forward Air terminal so it was only about 1hr away actual driving time for me.

My dad drove from Spring Run, Pa to a place in Illinois, right across the border from Louisville, Kentucky. I'm not exactly sure about the hours. Probably like 8-10 hours round trip. :)
