What do you find are the best reasons for NOT driving yourself?
We do mostly very long flights. Coming home to Orlando or Tampa, grabbing luggage, and then facing an hour to hour and a half drive is just too much for us. Sometimes our total travel time exceeds 24 hours. It has been known to reach 30 hours. Frequently we don't get land till 8:30-10:00 pm. It's just too much.
