Longest Boxster single day drive

[kk2002s]

For me the boxster's seat, left hip bolster, starts to pressure my left hip and then the discomfort starts after a few hours.

It's about $150 gas each way (About 37+ gals @ $4/gal)which is comparable with flying.
It's a little less then a 4 hour flight(If direct - but I doubt), time to get to and checkin before, after land time, then drive 1.5 hrs to destination - this turns in to 8-9 hours.
So driving 15 hours in a porsche isn't such a wacky idea

Besides I'm off my 12,000 miles a year this year due to weather and extra car. It's been sitting in the garage.
So I need to get back on track

wife and I have driven from OC to Vegas in a day then back the next approx 250 miles each way. Top down most of the time until the wind noise got tiring. Other than that i never was uncomfortable at all. got 30mpg to boot. I'd have no reservation driving the car anywhere.

Hip pain? Do you keep your wallet in one of you back pockets by chance? If so stop and use front pockets only...also less likely for pick pockets to get it. Got this advise from the Anaheim Angels team doctor years ago. (no I will never call them the la ang... F Marty Moreno! We are not LA!)

If I don't take my wallet out of my right back pocket when driving the boxster on long trips then after a few hours the back of my right leg goes numb...

1350 miles this weekend- if the car meets expectations. San Antonio to Vegas, straight thru.
