Mental, man. I wish I had the saving power and mates to do that with now, never mind at 18! Fair play, man. It looks like a blast.
You've plenty of time!
We drove from Vegas south to Kingman, AZ - one of the old Route 66 towns, then took (as much as we could) of 66 right out to where it ends in Santa Monica then the PCH from SM right up to San Fran stopping off in Santa Barbara and Monterey for the night en route.
EPIC road trip!

A lot of 66 is gone now. As you know it was once the main route from Chicago to LA but was replaced by the I-40 in the 70's. Since then it has deteriorated as has a lot of the towns along with it and in some cases the road just ends. You can be traveling along and literally run out of road. You then have to double back on to the freeway and try to rejoin further on.
In the last decade or so there has been somewhat of a revival and *some* states have repaved but others, e.g. California don't have the money to. Sat Nav is of no use doing 66, you need maps and a good navigator beside you. Well worth the trip though but it can be annoying as you can't just get on it and drive.0 -

TBH I would do it the other way around, i.e. fly to San Fran, drive south to LA then east on 66. Couple of reasons why: PCH is better driven north to south as you can just pull in anywhere you want to stop to take pics, etc as opposed to having to cross the road. Sounds trivial but when traveling north and you see a spot you would like to stop there is often traffic behind you and coming south too so you tend to just plough on. Also if you finish up in Chicago you will get a direct flight home as opposed to going SF > LA / AT > DUB. You will most definitely thank yourself for this once you get home. 0

You have a point alright. There are a few drawbacks though, California do not issue temp tags so I would have to pay to register the car in my home state (which I can't do for obvious reasons) I also Know people who live in San Fran thats why I would like spend time there at the end. That is a good point about the PCH though. The only thing about heading south though is that yoou are on the sea side of the road so there is less room for error.
ON the other hand it is hard to sell a 49 state car in Cal as you have to get it to pass a smog test. Also the people in cal don't really want ****ty old us cars with big V8's as much as people in other states do. A cal car is also easy to sell in the other 49 states as there is no rust etc...0 -

That E46 vid was just brilliant. Testing the electrics, watching the metal parts get welded, that first start of the engine. Watching thousands of parts coming together to make one machine. To think, we witnessed someones car being assembled. Someone out there may have this car, not knowing that there is a vid on how it was assembled. The VIN was shown IIRC unless it was a rejected car
Back to vids, it was either this or bummerdale :pac:
