Has anyone done a fly drive USA.

It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

The Top Gear team did one a year or so back. I would recommend that you copy what they did exactly.....but don't run away like them. :lol: :lol:

Blimey ****`y; it was in 1981!!! There are great places to stop like Big Sur to watch whales, fabulous scenery all the way and very light traffic away from the cities. We had a Cadillac (natch) but I wish we`d had a convertible. We took two days but it could easily be stretched to a week with stopovers etc.

In that time you could take in Vegas, Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam; that was our full trip.

Should have asked if anyone has "done a drive-by USA"! Quite the popular sport in "the hood" if I'm correct... :-P :wink:
