Two negatives make a positive but only in Scotland do two positives make a negative - 'Aye right.'

awesome - might be considerably cheaper renting from Avis Prestige, and dodging the car transportation and insurance nightmare?

Having done a few roadtrips in the US in Ja, its just fascintating. Although surely the ultimate coast to coast is the Cannonball? :twisted: :thumbsup

Yeah, agree. Would be cheaper hiring a Mustang or Camaro .......

From sea to shining sea!

Looks like that trip includes shipping of the car, but must be a hoot. likelihood of being arrested in a cannonballesque cross US trip would be high. lol

I even have Cannonball Run on my phone in case I'm bored when travelling! :thumbsup
