Hey i would really like some input.
I've recently bought a new '15 is250 f sport crafted line and would really like to drive it to new york about 13 hours one way, it's at 4700 miles , is this a bad idea to take a car this new on a 700mile trip? I plan to have it clear bra on the front just incase

Nope, go for it and enjoy the trip.

4700 is no longer new.

Yeah is 4700 in 5-6 monthes alot? I use it as my daily for work . Now im hesitant to put 700miles one way but something came up and it's urgent 🤔

Don't be hesitant, you bought it to drive it.

Yeah.. I plan to keep it for 4 years but just dont wanna put too many miles on it each year

Agree with the others, 4700 miles is no longer new, enjoy it and take it on a nice long road trip. Being as it is a Toyota, it won't be broken in till 200k miles anyhow.

Done it before. Do it and enjoy. Put on a clearbra before you leave if you're that concerned.

How are you going to keep the miles down? By renting a Corolla and driving the trip in that instead? If you own it, enjoy it. If you drive it more miles than you anticipated, so be it.

do you have a clear bra?? Your windshield will not be prisitne when you get back either. Thats a lot of mileage. Id personally rent a car for that kind of a trip and my car is a 2010.

Welcome to CL as a new poster.

Are you going to New York City or upstate New York? A bra would be a good idea if you are going to drive across Pennsylvania on the way to New York City. There are a lot of coal trucks running across the western part of the state...and sometimes pieces of coal fly off or are kicked up on the road by vehicle-tires. If you are going further upstate NY, you won't be spending as much time on PA's roads. PA and OH have a reputation for some torn-up roads, although the PA and OH Turnpikes are usually in better condition because they get maintenance-funding from tolls. Right now, the weather in that part of the country is warm, but sharp changes are coming this weekend, with maybe snow squalls in northeastern OH, northwestern PA, and western NY state near Lake Erie.

Also, one last thing......the PA Turnpike, if you drive it, has relatively few exits (some of them are are 30-40 miles apart)......so plan your gas stops accordingly.

Have a nice trip.

Thanks for allthe helpful inputs!!
Yes i will be getting professional clear bra installed in the full front, and yes this is alot of miles we talking about...maybe around 1500 roundway, which is why im hesitant, i plan to have it waxed and everything before the trip, but it really is urgent...i plan to propose to my gf !!

dude, CONGRATS !!!! That is a big deal. As long as you have the clear bra I would stress it then. The windshield can get pitted but only if you follow closely. I think your golden.

Congrats again. Thats a BIG deal

Congratulations. In that case, we wish you both the best. Hope it works out for you.

(She's not following this thread, is she? LOL)

Hahah yes i never follow too close anyway, if i do decide to make this trip ill be keeping it in the garage for the winter anyway, 😂 She doesnt know about this forum but whew, you guys rock
