Rough budget for Road Trippin North America?
A mate and myself (both from Scotland) have been thinking about doing a trip from possibly Alaska, through Canada, down California and zig zag across North America to end in either NY or Florida. Trip would be for no more than 3 months as i have rent etc to be paying while im away
Will most likely be sharing a car, tho there is a possibility of doing on bikes but my mate hasnt done his test so car is the most obvious solution. Ive not been to the USA since i was too young to appreciate money so havent really got much a clue how much everything costs. Except fuel which is obviously silly cheap so a major saving there.
We wouldnt be using hotels all that much, cheaper accommodation would be used to save the pennies.
So what do u guys rekon is a reasonable budget for this adventure? excluding the cost of flights to and from america and the cost of the car itself.
Actually how much do half decent cars go for in America? It would be good to get a big V8 or something since running one here in the uk costs faaar too much. Anything suited to around 10 thousand miles of travelling tho would be ok.
Cheers guys,
Dave
