Is OP aware of what is going on in mexico? El savador use to be bad as well, idk if it still is. Not to mention driving in those countries will take some getting use to if you havn't driven there before, especially in the big cities. I hope that i can road trip in my car soon, it would be perfect if you're going with one other person. Thinking about driving up the east coast or west coast this summer, either should be fun.

I drove from south Texas to Bar Harbor, Maine in my Mini a few years ago, side tripping to the Tail of The Dragon, then upstate New York and back in the fall. Plan to repeat the trip in my FR-S soon...

It is crazy to see everyone's ideal road trips. Any specific things you want to see along the way? I lived in El Salvador, so I was just thinking driving back may be more fun than flying, but who knows what is realistic.

My type of adventure trip is a carry-over from my motorcycling days. What I do is throw my duffle bag in the back of my car and take off for any where from 3 to 5 days. Most of the time I know where I'm going. There have been times I've left home not sure whether I was going to turn right or turn left till I got there. A lot like the upcoming meet this June in Las Vegas. I'll stretch it out a little by spending one night on the road before I get there and another night on the road coming home.

It's a great, quick way to get from one coast to the other, but that's honestly about it. Also, if I see another Little America billboard I'm going to go on a rampage.

I'd do 5 south to 10 east and end up in florida, but my major stop off would be in monterey park, CA =) can't go anywhere without stopping there 1st. Grew up there.
