Amazing. I wonder what it will be like in New Orleans, Mobile etc. It might sound stupid but that oil spill is historic and will be remembered for decades so take pics.
I'm also wondering how it will be like in New Orleans (we're not stopping in Mobile). I will, of course, take many pics :bigup:
HOly fuck vraiment nice comme plan, exactement comme je voudrais le faire!
:bigup:
looks sick, I would have stopped by Oregon though.
There are many, many more places we would have liked to pass by, but we had to put some limits!
sounds fun!
redbull is your friend!
Haha, the driving is actually not that bad! Oh, and did I mention I'm the only one driving? The girlfriend doesn't have her license yet :run:
couldn't have a diesel truck? would have been better no?
It would have been more economical, but it was already hard to find a reasonable price on a vehicle with unlimited mileage, diesel was impossible to find, or it would have costed more in the end. Gas is cheap here in the states anyway :bigup:
Thanks :bigup:
Looks like you guys got a great trip planned. Good job avoiding I-70 possibly the worst highway in existence. I did about the same route from MTL to LV.
Watch out for Arizona cops
I didn't know about I-70! Thanks for the tip *tu*
What do you guys do for lodging? On the fly or reserved ahead of time?
We reserved the first 3-4 weeks before leaving: hotels for cities in which we only stay for a night or 2, and vacation rentals for LA (10 days) and Venice (1 week). Most of the rest of the trip is now booked. The girlfriend is good at finding great hotels (Hilton, Westin, ...) at great prices :bigup:
Exactly what I wanna do within the next 2 years...
Good luck, and plan in advance, it is a lot of planning :run:
How did you plan your trip? Why did you choose the route you did?
At first we wanted to go to LA and stay in the area for a couple of weeks, and we planned to take the shortest route. But then we thought that if we were to drive 8000km or more, we might as well take a more interesting route. So we started listing all the stuff we wanted to see, made a list of "must see", and planned a route around this.
We left Florida for another trip. And we also left the northern west coast for another time.
