To No One's Surprise, a Gas-Powered Road Trip Bests One in an Electric Vehicle

I adore road trips, especially when I am not the one driving. Thankfully, hubby enjoys being in the driver’s seat, so I get that option more often than not. Anyone who has been on the open road, and especially has gotten off the beaten path, understands the sense of adventure and freedom resident in even the smallest of trips. The 400 miles north from Orange County to San Luis Obispo is enough space, road, and adventure to make me feel as though I have traveled. Road Tripping is a distinctly unique American activity. In Europe they take trains. In America, we drive, and it is unrivaled. I would dare say the road trip is one of the last bastions of American freedom. I’ll take a road trip over a plane trip any day of the week.
