longest drive

[juddobscure]

guys, i just wanna ask you where is the longest drive you had so far? you know, to quote robert frost "...miles to go before i sleep..."?

[OTEP]

Mine is not really long in terms of distance but long in terms of time. Dala ko yung MB100 pababa ng Baguio. It took me 12 hours dahil ang daming construction works.

Bumakat na ata pwet ko sa upuan, eh.

Naka 5 pcs. Chicken Joy ako at sandamakmak na extra rice when I got to Tarlac.

[Dakila7]

parang napagdaanan ko din yun ser Otep...

longest drive... wait... i'm not sure parang pareho lang kasi eh

L300 - Summer of 1994
Marbel - Davao - Butuan - Cagayan de Oro - Iligan --> approx. 15 hrs syempre kailangan ko ring dyumingel at rumancho

MB100 - Summer of 2000
Pampanga - Manila - Quezon - Naga - Sorsogon - Allen - Calbayog - Borongan - Guian (Eastern Samar) ---> more than a day - buti na lang may ferry nakatulog din sa wakas.

8 hrs lang ako pero yung normal biyahe ko dun 2hrs lang sa bataan mahal na araw eh ayun gapang simula NLEX hanggang bataan. este simula a bonifacio pala :mrgreen:

[boybi]

ako mga 8hrs (around 1995), manila to tarlac lang po yun (9am-5pm). holy thursday kasi. P90.00 lang ang pera ko tapos 1/4 nalang ang gas ko. expect ko kasi 2 1/2 hrs lang ang travel. di pa ako nag breakfast. di ko tuloy alam kung ipang-gas ko yung pera ko o pangbili ng pagkain. sa gutom ko (mga around 2pm) bumili nalang ako ng palipit at zesto sa mga naglalako sa daan tapos pinang gas ko yung natirang P50. (medyo mura pa yung gas nun).

The subject did not state if non-stop or with stop-over.

If non-stop, it's from Marikina to Manila on one faithful December night in 1996. Took me
4hrs. (Toyota Corolla)

If with stop-over but without sleep, yun sa port of Liloan in the southern tip of Leyte to the port of Allen in Samar from 6pm to 4am. Just enough time to catch the ferry to Matnog, Sorsogon. (yr. 1999, Gen I Pajero)

For the longest I could say the trip of Manila to Marvel, South Cotabato and back. (yr. 1999, Gen I Pajero)

Second is the drive from Manila taking the Ilocos-Pagudpud-Patapat-Isabela-Tuguegarao route. (yr. 1995, 1994 Corolla)

Haven't tried going back the other way.

Longest drive distance-wise: Manila-Baguio non-stop. Left 6AM arrived 1PM, circa 1999 (using my 4K owner) 8)

Longest drive time-wise (15 km only): Ortigas - Malibay via Villamor. Left office at 7PM arrived home 5AM. Forgot the name of the typhoon, but it was the first time that i went "crawl - sleep- get honked at - crawl again - sleep..." I think you get the picture :x

Halos pumutok na pantog ko noon... ;)

OTEP kmusta na LCII nyo? Any updates?

[OTEP]

Nasa garahe na after a month in the shop. Hindi na nakabili ng parts. Yung signal lamp lang ang pinalitan. Yung bumper repaired tapos pininturahan ng gray. Yung grille, repaired ang lower portion tapos paited gray din to match the other sections of the grille. Yung flare, fiberglass magic na lang.

Ang ganda ng color matching. Perfect! Hindi na halata yung pinagdaanan niya. Even the frame rails were repainted.

Siyempre at 46T, we could only expect the best. Sa shop ni Alex Isip ginawa, eh.

Pero hindi ko pa ginagamit.
