How long have you guys gone without driving your Corolla before??

I have not driven mine since the ice/snow storms came through on Monday January 31st. I got home from work that day and the car has not gone anywhere since. My street is pure ice and has a slight hill to the beginning of the street and is a dead end two houses down. I am ITCHING to drive my baby! I have resorted to playing Need For Speed Most Wanted and Need For Speed Carbon to get my fix, lol. I will not be able to drive tomorrow for sure, and Friday is not looking good either but I can only hope! This has been 10 days (counting tomorrow) that she will not been driven and I am losing my mind here!!! I am getting so stir crazy I am planning on about 3-4 mods to apologize to her (and a surprise 1 year anniversary for her

)

So the question.... How long have you guys gone without driving your Corolla before?? and were you going as crazy as I am?! I might go and just sit in her tomorrow when I get home just to spend time with her!!

wow, I have a problem!!

LOL!

the most i've gone was 4 days... went on a weekend trip with my friends. left on thursday. came back on sunday...i was driving a rental van...
man i wish i had my corolla instead

i went 8 days while in Las Vegas shortly after I got it, but my mind was in Vegas even though I had lowered the car 2 days before the trip. Seeing it sit there and walking up to the top of the street so my father can pick me up (I usually pick him up and drop him off as we don't work too far away from each other) is KILLING ME!!!

Instead of me cruising in my beauty, we commute in a 93 Ford Escort van

THIS ICE NEEDS TO MELT!! It's slowly killing me with each passing day I cannot drive her!

2.5 weeks was the most for me. Worst part was I was in Thailand for these 2 and a half weeks.. So seeing corolla's all over the place made me miss my baby. Plus everytime I sat in a taxi, I would try and see the diff between mine and theirs.. LOL..

most ive gone was 3 days in a row because i was on a snowboarding trip and i left my car at home. other than that ive driven my car every day besides a few 1 days here and there. ive had my car for 361 days and all together i havent driven my car for about 8 of them. i remember i didnt drive my car the day after i installed my exhaust, that was horrible haha

same here! 2.5 weeks as I was in Taiwan! And of course I too rode in a lot of Altis's and man what a difference! :'( I wish we had the 2.0l and 4 wheel disc brakes! oh and headlight washers...i think

I also of course was trying to find out all the differences and those above were some of the things I found

Hahaha suckers

School was closed for 4 days last week and also today. I still had to work though. The corolla handled really well in the ice. Did you get that pic I sent you?

I'm looking forward to this weekend....SUNNY & 70!!

That's Texas for ya!
