I don't do much driving, cages scare me, but my vape rides in the top right pocket of my cut at all times. It's one of the true joys for switching from smoking, at 75mph on the bike I was lucky to get 2 full drags of a cigarette (100's no less), now I can get my vape on at any speed :D

It's a 35 minute drive each way for me and just like when I smoked, I vape the whole way. I still always open the window, just a touch, even if I have the A/C on. That was part of the ritual of getting in the truck, put on the seatbelt, open the window a bit, light a cig (now pull my APV out of my purse), put in the clutch and start her up.

I will top up a clearo, but usually wait for a red light to do it. I've gotten pretty quick at it!

I used to smoke and drive all the time until I got my first brand new (not used) car. So for 5 years since the day I got it I have not allowed myself to smoke in the car. That trip from Louisiana to Arizona a few years ago was an exercise in finding strategic rest stops to have a smoke. hahahahahahaha

Since I started vaping I am rediscovering the joys of not having to stop to have a smoke. I vape in the car all the time. It is WONDERFUL!

normally i have my Evic in the front cup holder and puff when i feel the need or hit a trigger area (bridges.. irrational fear that the bridge will collapse from under me, known cop radar spots, cars tailing me, reckless drivers, too much traffic). i dont vape much unless im at the speed im going for since i drive stick shift and its still a little odd holding the mod and shifting, id rather wait till i hit speed limit and puff away.

I felt this way about cigarettes and driving. If I went on an 8 hour trip up north, I could go through a pack. Now its 7-8ml of juice:D
I love to drive and vaping makes it much nicer. It will be especially nice not having to crack the window in the winter to get my nic fix!
Now all I need is some way to vape while I ride the motorcycle. Wouldn't THAT be quite a site?:laugh:

When you figure this out please let me know. :D

When I first started vaping, I used an eGo on a lanyard.....vaped all I wanted as I was flying down the road. Purchased a mod...much harder to do given the size and not having a lanyard for it. Actually now, waiting for the Innokin VTR to be released and reviews done, if good...it's my next buy with the belt clip. It'll be my "on the go" mod.....

If you wear a full face, (on a DS I'm betting you do) the MX style has more room in front of your mouth, so you could use one of those 45* drip tips and just hold your mod upright.

I love to vape in the car! It's my favorite place to vape. One thing I can do in the car now that I couldn't do while smoking is have the A/C on recirculate and windows up without stink and dirty windows.

The A/C on recirculate while smoking was the worst smell.. even with the window cracked..

I vape and drive all the time! I see people smoking in their car and want to throw my device in their car and say "try this.. it will change your life."

When I first starting vaping there was a guy that created a some thingie around his neck out of leather so he could vape while riding his motorcycle. Petty ingenious I thought. Man wish I could remember who.

Why don't you ask PBusardo? He could probably adapt his Legal Vape 4000 for motorcycles...

i CANNOT drive without vaping.

driving is a huge trigger for me, i use to light up as soon i get into the car, everytime, even when driving to the local shop down the road- that would be one on the way and one back.

now with my vape, its so much more pleasant. you dont get to feel bad for throwing away that 3/4 analog as you enter the shop.

I vape when Imdrive for sure.
Your wife won't let u vape at home wow man. Hope she eventually lightens up.

It's all good. She is just worried about me. I quit smoking years ago (before we were together) but recently picked up vaping because I was stressed and wanted a real cig. I think she is afraid that I'll go back to analogs but that's not how it works LOL.
