My Boxster is a great car and I'm sure it would be capable of driving anywhere I wanted to go.

But...I'm sure I'd be more worried about it than the Jeep.

It's funny how paranoid we are about these cars! Maybe we've just read too many posts on the forums.

In the end, ts just a car. Cars have made successful trips for well over 100 years. Just go!

(and take your credit card and cell phone just in case!)

I'd worry more about the Jeep, in my experience !

Just go drive the Boxster. Life's too short to worry. I wish I had a 1,400 mile trip I needed to take .
