The non sleepers are winning this race.

 

My Patty is out after the first 5 miles. I beginning to think I'm boring her to the point of sleep.

 

My daughter in law often falls asleep quickly in a car. Wish I could. After an S2000 meet I always need a nap! We stay up way too late at those meets!

 

if it moves I can't sleep. boat, car, truck, plane , bus you name it, and I'm wide awake. ( which is why I don't take red eye flights)

My precious on the other hand

 

It's trust and faith in your driving ability, David.

 

My wife will fall asleep on just about every ride in the "S".

 

Same here. I voted "other" since I have great difficulty sleeping if my +1 is driving the S, but he nods off as soon as we leave the driveway (almost) and sleeps constantly while I'm driving. I otoh cannot sleep while ANYONE is driving my S. I'm not comfortable letting someone else take the wheel. I feel that the S is tuned to my driving her and she is not happy unless I'm behind the wheel. The S is a car that demands one's full attention and it's steering, etc. is such that sometimes I don't even think its a very good idea to do a lot of thinking about anything except the driving of that car. I vividly remember one occasion when we were returning from a meet in NC when he nodded off and only woke up with I started zooming in reverse up a ramp to avoid what could have been a horrible collision. The noise of the car that careened across the highway sideways into a guardrail woke him up.

 

I'm never a passenger in the Perkymobile, so the answer is no for me. The +1 doesn't fall asleep, either, probably because I'm scaring him quite frequently. He still calls me Mario Andretti. He says I'm not scaring him when I ask, but I'm not so sure.
