    This reminded me of the bygone era of the massive American Land Yachts. My father had one when I was growing up, before gas hit $1 a gallon. We drove it from our home at the time near Philly PA to Rhode Island to visit a school I wanted to go to at the time (Around 1980). I had just gotten my driver's licenses and I got to drive it for the first time. I was so comfortable, that my mother fell asleep in the back seat, which was made to seat four people in comfort. My father, who was in the passenger seat, also fell asleep due to the comfortable ride and interior. When we got home, I had to wake up the both of them, who where surprised to find out they where in the driveway of our home. I'll never forget that car, it had a Chevy 350 V8, the softest suspension I ever saw in a car, and the worst handling line of any car I've ever driven.
