Just pay attention to other drivers. Some of the back roads get real narrow and you just have to pay close attention.

I have always just searched online personally, but there is a good dealer called Cherry Auto Sales where my boyfriend's mother got her car. It's just all about preference.

My favorite memory is the day I finally got my permit again. It had been about 2 years since I drove and I finally got the chance to get back behind the wheel. I was nervous because it my first time driving in this area. But I felt so free behind the wheel. Like I could conquer the world.

Van Wyck Rd.. I like this road because there is hardly ever anyone else driving on it. It is just an old back road. When I am in a rush to work, I really like it because I can drive a little faster and not get caught.

Do NOT talk on your cell phone while in the city limits! Big no-no. Traffic can be a big hassle, so on six-lane roads stay in the middle lane until right before your exit. Almost all major roads in Greenville are six lane roads.

The Upstate of South Carolina has some wonderful mountainous areas to explore and drive. Not long after I purchased a straight drive Mazda Miata, I decided to test it out on the curvy road from Greenville, SC to Brevard, NC. Top down, it was a gorgeous day to traverse the hills. I was giddy at the thought of feeling the zoom-zoom of the Miata and the wind in my hair. As I started up the steep incline, I had to drop it down into second gear... great power... got it up to into 3rd and into 4th gear... whoa... drop back down to 2nd... rinse, repeat. I'm getting a bit tired of pushing in the clutch... feel the wind.... change gears. Grr. Once I finally reached Brevard, I decided my best way back home would be on the Interstate, where I could stay in 5th gear!!!

Altamont Drive. My favorite road to drive is the Blue Ridge Parkway, especially between Asheville, NC and Cherokee, NC. The road offers lots of pull-offs or "Observation Stops" along the 100-mile drive, as well as lots of curvy spots and tunnels. The scenery is outstanding and the pace is leisurely.
