South Carolina to Southern California Wheeling Trip

Which route are you planning on taking, and how much time are you talking?
I've been cross country with my Tacomas many times, it's a long drive, but depending on the route, there's a lot of options for off-roading!

 

Damn right! Planing to get one asap

 

If we all drive, i would think any route needs to hit Vegas!

 

Need sponsors lol

 

Need something....to help get us moving faster

 

You will be passing right through Phx to hit the 85 into SD. You could hit Moab, Sedona, Phoenix and even the dunes in Yuma.

 

Would be awesome. I'm looking forward to this trip for sure.

 

Are we still talking a couple years out? My wife and I are planning a trip to Napa/Sonoma later this year or early next so I would need to plan accordingly. I'm game for driving across country, lots to see in this beautiful country of ours. Or if we can fill a transport and ship the trucks then fly on a private jet that would work too.

 

I would prefer driving.

 

I would say so! But I think it would be fun to at least hit a "must go to spot" or two in each state.

If driven round trip, I'd think we'd need at least 3 weeks to stop along the way in addition to our destination, SoCal.

My thoughts exactly...now to decided if it should go on the truck or on a trailer.

Totally open to route suggestions! I'm thinking two different routes each way for a variety of stops.

Wrap the entire truck?

I think we're still at least a year or two out...

I dunno...if @NeedmoreTaco is providing the private jet I'd have to fly at least one part of the trip!

 

That's true.

 

I agree with 3 weeks, a couple spots in each state and a separate route there and back. There are some websites online that have pre planned routes and I believe AAA can help as well. As for the private jet, I'll see what I can do.

 

@Irongrave

Be here too!

 

How about a loop, for example, leave on the 40, come back on the 10, hit New Orleans on the way back!

 

Yass!!!

 

its a start!

How much y'all think this trip would be running? Just trying to get a number in my head....I was thinking about 10k-12k?

 

Hell no! Unless you plan on staying at ritz carlton each night, lol!

 

Biggest expense will be gas and food.

Plan on 2500- 3000 miles, each way. Dived your milage per gallon, then multiply number of gallons times an average gas price.

Food/water costs will vary. Add in any random hotel stays while on the road.

If you plan on shipping that truck and flying- that would be added.

Allow for incidentals like a Las Vagas stop, camp ground fees, etc.

I need to buy some extrs supplies too.

 

So about $6k?
