I was talking about a straight through run between two major cities.
If you want to see random sites in random small towns or have family out in the country, train becomes a little less practical.
Chicago to Orlando, 2 adults and 2 kids, $425 train fare, 1/3 the air fare. Still more than driving, but removes the need to drive for 20 hours, no need to find a place to stay for the night during the trip, no wear on your car, and better for the environment too.

So the other day we both returned home at the same time again, only now the weather is warm, sunny, with no wind. And I yell to him: You took the car? In this weather?!?
