IMO a Cobra for the most part is not a car for long distance driving. The wind and exhaust noise wear you out after a few hours especially at 70+ MPH. I did 700 miles in a 24 hr period ONCE. I left at 4 am and returned home at about Midnight. I was beat, it had been very hot 100+ during the day. The car was completely covered with small bugs, it was an absolute mess.

Dwight you get the Gold Star from me, you're a real trooper.
