just wanted to let you all know i am taking a road trip in my 96 ex.going from florida to arizona,about 2000 miles+.i am getting a hitch put on from uhaul(bolt on) and am towing a 4x8 trailor.anyone else made this kind of a trip in a civic and if so how did it go?i am a little worried about putting to much stress on the clutch and tranny but i think it can handle it.

 

What part of Arizona are you traveling too?

 

4x8 trailer, less than 1000 lbs for it loaded I'd assume. You should be just fine. Especially since it's all freeway, once you're moving there's not much stress.

 

phoenix.u in az?we will be moving to the east side not long after we arrive,tempe or scottsdale.

 

just did arizona to south carolina......35 hours total.....2300 miles.....muns 3 hours for time change minus another 3 hours for a nap i took.....29 hours for 2300 miles.....yes i was moving...and NO TICKETS....all done in an automatic 92 hatch!!!! stock engine.....37.7 mpg!!!!!

 

Everytime I go from Brownsville, Texas to NYC it takes me 28 hours total 2,100 miles doing 75-85 all the way through. No stops, just gas and food.

 

be prepared to see alot of rust free cars.
man I love az

 

Getting ready to travel from VA to Tucson AZ next weekend - 24th and on.

 

Well looks like lots of you guys are coming to Arizona and welcome. All i can say is better hope that your car a/c works

 

should do fine once your moving, i go from colorado to san diego acouple times a year for leave, 1100+miles each way.

 

well we made the trip no problem,the civic was great it towed the 4x8 trailor just finr we couldent get over 75 unless we were on a hill but no big deal we were just enjoying the drive anyway.now the bad news we got our apt and 3 days after moving in the car is stolen,we just got it back and we are missing intake,rims,stereo and speakers. they didnt take the msd ignition,header,front and rear sway bars or exhaust and muffler which is a good thing.but if any of you hear of 18inch g-racing rims with 3 toyo proxie tires and 1 with a yokohama parada tire for sale please let me know.thanks guys.
