Default First long trip

Just got back from my first big trip. Drove from south of Kansas City Ks to Destin Florida over 2k miles. We had three adults and two children ages 7-12. The trunk was maxed out , no room from a extra shirt !! I have a 2010 with HUD, Navi, LKA and so on. Factory Toyo 18 tires with 35 front and 34 rear. The car did great. No problems with space or noise . We avg. Over 36 mpg, which was great with all the weight and speeds we drove. Coming home we drove through Alabama and Arkansas in rain and avg. about 85 and got 35ish after we got gas. The only thing I wish we had.....HID lights. fine but avg lights. I had no problems with wind noise at higher speeds. I loved the radar cruise and LKA. It really worked late at night ( came home at 0400). We just bought the car after trading in our Infiniti , also have a loaded Prius with roof and navi leather and its not even even close to the same car. And I really like the Prius. Over all no issues or problems, I was asked three times about the car and wanted details about it. Over the whole trip I saw only one other HS (white) mine is black .
