longest you have driven your mz2?

I'm heading out tomorrow (I hope) to drive 1800 miles one way. I'll be doing the return trip at the end of the month.
 
Did 1000 miles this past weekend on a quick trip to VA Beach. The ride was fine until I hit the bad roads in VA Beach... BUMP SLAM BOUNCE!
 
These things seem to soak up the miles like real troopers, judging from your stories. Mine hasn't gotten to stretch its legs beyond the local highways yet, but I definitely want to road trip from my home in upstate NY to visit family in Las Vegas. 2,500 miles each way. I really want to take my WRX on the Bonneville salt flats, but the cost difference in fuel alone for a 5,000 mile trip is substantial. It would kinda suck on the coilovers and fixed-back seats too...my vertebrae would be ground to dust.


5000 miles/23mpg (being nice to the wrx) = 217.39 gallons, x $4/gallon(ballpark) for 93 octane = ~$870
5000 miles/34mpg (flogging the 2) = 147.06 gallons, x $3.75/gallon(ballpark) for 87 octane = ~ $551
