Car, Train or Plane
« on: July 03, 2013, 12:07:35 pm »
What would your option be, car, train plane. I have been on long trips in a car, but I can't drive for long hours, but I can be a passenger, although that is exhausting as well. I've never been on a train, but I would like to try it and I've only been on a plane once and I am terrified of heights.

What's your choice?????????? :wave: :female:

Trains are sooo cool!! I would love to do some train travel, but the prices they want are outrageous today!! Seriously! I live in a rural area, that is to say not in the north east of the US where trains are very common commuter ones, so for me a nice car on a train is more than first class air travel! Sorry but I just can't handle the 'cattle car' train experience and the times that I have gone that way I spent too much time in the club car (translate that to 'bar')!  ;D

I've never been on a train, car trips are ok, but I don't like to do a lot of the driving.  I like to fly, I'm afraid of heights too, I just never sit by the window.

I love to travel.  usually do the car thing.  we ride for like 3 hours then stop and check out things and go on for awhile.

i have flown on planes.  not my favorite thing to do but if you want to get somewhere in a hurry thats the way to go lol    I always take  something that will make me drowsey  and i sleep on the flight. lol

have never been on a train,,,,  but would love to  try it out.  Maybe on my next venture :)

For long distances always a plane.  For shorter distances, probably a car.

I have rode the train a few times before, both Amtrak and the light rail and the train cars in Chicago.  It's not a bad experience but really no cheaper than flying or driving.

I have traveled on a bus, and that was tiring.  I would prefer to travel by car.  I am scared to death of planes and have never been on a train, although I would like to experience it. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :wave:

Never been on a train, planes are fun, but then you need a rental, I've always driven. I like road trips.

It depends on where I'm going  :dontknow: I've never been on a train before. I'd like to try it. I like whatever gets me there the fastest.

I think you forgot travelling by ship/boat =P.... If it's short distance I would prefer traveling by car... If it's 25+ miles then I prefer train... The plane for the oversees travel

I've been in a plane once, and I really like it. it was fun experience for me. It was a long flight for 14hours straight.

Surprised to read so many of you have not been on a plane or train or both.

If you fly in a plane somewhere you don't always need a car -- when I got to Disney there are the disney buses that take you from the ariport to your hotel and your hotel to the parks.
