Drive Across America

Drive Across America

It's the American Dream - On the Road - Route 66 and all that. Many of you will have given it more than just a second thought. It may be something you have been storing up in the back of your mind some time - and you may just have to act on it some day. To help, there are some inspirational sites on the internet that might just get you out into the amazinly huge road network of the US.
One such site is Road Trip USA which has a multitude of ideas and information to get you planning your tarmac adventure. It focuses on 11 top drives including favourites like Route 66, The Oregon Trail and the Pacific Coast.

What about driving someone else's car accross from East to West or West to East? There are people who are moving from one coast to the other and want to bring their car along with them but are not going to drive it themselves. What do these people do? They ask someone else to drive it for them. Agencies known as drive-aways hire people to drive other people's cars to specific destinations. You have to satisfy some general requirements like no criminal record, able to pay a sizeable but fully refundable deposit, can get the car there within a certain number of days, over 19 years old with a valid driver's license. Normally you've got to pay for the petrol.
