the thing i'm most hyped for is just driving around and doing nothing

I keep thinking about all the big stuff, the story, the heists, whatever they're cooking with Lucia and Jason. But honestly? The part I can't stop thinking about is just getting in a car and driving.

Not even going anywhere specific. Just picking a random sedan off the street, seeing how it handles compared to a muscle car or some beat-up truck. Cruising through Vice Beach with the windows down, radio blasting, not a mission marker in sight. I did this for hours in V and it never got old, but with the new map? Leonida looks insane. I want to see how the Keys feel different from the swamps up in Grassrivers. I want to take a wrong turn in Port Gellhorn and end up in some neighborhood I didn't even know existed.

And the radio. I'm weirdly excited about the radio. Finding that one station that just fits the vibe, hearing some dumb ad for a fake energy drink, then a talk show segment that makes me pull over because I'm laughing too hard. I feel like I'm gonna spend the first week barely touching the story. Just driving, parking, walking around, seeing what random events pop up. Maybe I'll find a car I really like and keep it in a garage. Or maybe I'll just ditch it for the next shiny thing I see.

What's the first thing you're gonna do when you finally get control, straight to the missions or just drive until you hit the edge of the map?
