why?

H3LlIoN · 11-22-2009, 11:03 AM

well...to see how comfortable it was. I spend every weekend out at an airport, so I was weighing it as a long term option, but that ain't happening. I either bringing an SUV or a tent from here on out.

Did you sleep in the seats or in the hatch? If the latter, I would consider a small inflatable mattress if you aren't using one already. Plus, a split-folding rear seat--which lies flatter than the bench, would also be better. Otherwise, have you ever considered just getting a hotel?

H3LlIoN · 11-22-2009, 11:12 AM

I have the split rear...and the seats are not currently in the car, so I just curled up in the footwell of the backseat. Oh and a hotel involves driving, which involves not drinking, and is therefore excluded by default.

Ouch! No wonder! But kudos to you for not driving after drinking! And a tent/sleeping back are definitely in order...

Keep the keys out of the ignition. People can get a drunk driving ticket even if they aren't driving. The cops use the intent to drive as a reason to give a ticket.

Actually, I would recommend checking your state laws, as in some locations it is illegal even to be in the car with the keys on your person if you have been drinking...

goku87 · 11-22-2009, 02:12 PM

I believe that's the way it is here in alaska. If you're drunk, you better not be in the car, unless someone else is driving.

Good Point!

I think you guys are right, and it kind of makes me want to sleep drunk with my keys in my pocket til I get arrested and then sue the state.

You can't sue the state.

And everybody. The state, the auto manufacturer, the server, the key manufacturer, . . .

Can't win, though. They'd have to pass a law to let you.

*tomato* · 11-22-2009, 02:21 PM

I wouldn't think the Yaris is that comfortable to sleep in unless maybe you rig up a small mattress in there somehow (remove the front seat?) but even so.

It might go something like this:

Before I was drinkin',
I found myself thinkin',
I'll get the car home alright.
But after some hours,
Of shots and some brewskis,
I slept in my Yaris last night.

Seriously though - good move not driving!
