Who likes CARS here?

That could work well for car camping. But having spent lots of time backpacking where the campsite is miles from the nearest car, I found that pre-grinding my coffee at home for french press and taking a french press with me in my pack, I can get pretty close to my home brew. Sure, the coffee could be fresher if I grind them with a manual grinder at the campsite but I don't have a manual grinder so this was my next best option. Since everything tastes better in the woods anyway, the quality was exactly what I needed when communing with nature.

Ah. So you are suggesting I carry around a full sized electric grinder so I can grind my beans in nature. And also carry around a two group espresso machine so I can make any kind of espresso drinks including milk drinks? Awesome! :-P

I used to know someone who put a horn in his car that made a very loud "Ooh Gah" sound. People either got out of his way, or they stopped dead in their tracks wondering what that noise was.

Haha, you have to get a train horn. They're like $50 on ebay and people clear the path really fast.

I rented a Shelby Mustang for a week in Las Vegas. I wouldn't consider myself a car guy, but wow was that an experience. Radar detector was 100% worth the money!

There is still some time left until the holidays;) and some people are already thinking about them very intensively :) I am thinking about going on vacation with my own car, but I really like to fly and the prospect of getting to my destination relatively quickly discourages me from a several-hour journey.


My holiday destination would be Italy or Croatia. Length 13-14 days, including travel. When driving a car, I would definitely like to cover the road in two sections with accommodation / sightseeing on the way, at least one way. I will try to present the advantages and disadvantages of individual means of transport:


Car:


Pros:
Certainly the ability to move easily, no time limits, division of fuel charges for 4 people, more luggage


Minuses:
Tolls for highways, parking lots, maybe expensive fuel ?, longer journey, possible car breakdown

It's now October 2020, and the number of COVID infections have increased worldwide, instead of getting better. Traveling to another country in the near future isn't a good idea.
Are you located in Ontario? Are there places in Canada that you can drive to - that would be safe and enjoyable?

Recently I was thinking about buying a car and realized that I wanted a BMW X1. Small, but BMW. And it is absolutely correct to say in the reviews that "BMW is a breed." The way it is. Still, driving a BMW is more enjoyable than driving a Qashqai, and there is no getting away from it. And it doesn't matter that this is one of the most affordable models of the concern, here, in any case, "all the BMW chips are present." After all, “... tastes differ, yes. But BMW's style is recognizable. "

You might want to postpone that for the time-being, the destination you want to visit is on high alert due to covid-19.
