Drive it! I drove my Aveo LS over 3,500 miles. From Seattle to Tampa. The gasket on something gave way in Louisiana and cost me 150.00 ish. Found a great garage
had me back on the road by noon. Its a good car, some are lemons its true but i think if you just do the maintenance and care for the car, replace what breaks. Fluids(synthetic oil), change transmission fluid, you can trust it not to let you down. But carry roadside towing just in case. No car is perfect ive seen new ones sitting on the sides of the road. A cars a car, you have to take care if them. Have a safe trip. Drive defensively as Florida drivers are the worst! Paigewebber owner of 2005 Aveo LS with 150,000 miles!

Make the drive. This is a great forum and there is a lot of people here who care about good car maintenance and appreciate the economy of the Aveo. Cheap to own, Cheap to fix, and Cheap to buy.

It's well worth learning how to do maintenance on your car.
