Hello all! For those who have taken a read of my roadtrip adventures (#1 http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php/167359-7-days-7-321kms-Western-USA-QPDO-style!!, and #2 http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php/176079-Gumball-4000-Roadtrip-to-Mexico-foor-a-beer), my girlfriend and I are looking at planning yet another trip... this time down the eastern United States seaboard. There are a few things I'd like to ask the more savvy East Coast Americans about a trip like this, they are as follows:
We are planning on flying into NYC and flying out of New Orleans after traversing the blacktop down the east coast. This trip would be between 10-14 days... sooooo....
1) Things we want to do/see:
3) Are there any particular stretches of roads a gear-head like me would LOVE to travel?
4) Where are some places/states that we need not waste our time in?
5) Both of us love beer.... are there any craft breweries that we should stop in at?
6) We plan on renting a car in NYC and dropping it off in New Orleans.... HOWEVER, if someone in the NYC area has a vehicle they'd sell to us for the cost of the rental and one way drop off fee *approximately $1500* (assuming it be roadworthy, reliable, have A/C, and cruise control), we'd rock that on temporary in-transit papers and drop it off at a New Orleans charity foundation (similar to that of a Kidney Car Foundation here in Canada-land). You could even take the tax credits, if there is a way of transferring them.
The tentative game plan is as follows:
