You can sell a kidney on the black market for a couple of grand
Seriously though, if you can scrape the funds together, we would probably end up on the same flight out of Heathrow. I'm planning on flying to LA a couple of days early and staying for about a week/10 days. It's going to be my first visit to the US, and its something I've wanted to do for years.
It would be great if you could make it over.

so I go to bed thinking 'I wonder if there will be much interest?'.. I wake up to three pages of awesome.
@Kc
I think videos are a for sure thing. I have that windowsphone with the insane camera/hd video recorder, so I can upload directly from the road. that was actually one of the first things I thought of.
@grognard
I LOVE peanuts..but for you, I would sacrifice them. seriously uncle, getting you on the trip would make my year. I sincerely mean that.
@turbo
dude, you gotta do it! hell if this gets big enough, I may need a second Illinois resident for the rental procedure!
@at tonyhind86
if your taking that much time to make the trip, why not join us? our trip coordinator(litmaster) seems to be lining up some pretty awesome stuff/ideas for stuff.
@litmaster
the 72oz steak challenge? FUUUUUUUUU....MAYBE. that's a lot of meat, somebody else will have to drive after that. but im down!
@gooer
you have 4-5 months to get the funds together, who knows what could happen in that amount of time? KEEP HOPE ALIVE!
ya'll have made me a happy hermit with the excitement for this! lets keep the momentum going!

I guess flying to IL would be swifter and cheaper, and for the benefits of participating in this epic road trip, I would gladly contribute to the fuel and supplies expenses. To be honest, i've said that I always wanted to visit the States - this way, I'll get to see more of it, and with great company aswell.

Small-ish update.
these figures are entirely guess-timation. But I checked on the fuel economy of making the trip in the 12 passenger van I brought up in the original post. Total bill one way will be about a grand, now split that between say ten people...round trip from Illinois to la and back will have us at 200 a piece.
again, those are rough figures. But they are entirely doable I think.

That'll mean we'll need about 30 hours worth of stock stories of boobs and alcohol, so... we should be fine!
Do it! Turbo, you've got the least excuse! You live only a couple hour's drive from St. Louis. Come on! You can be our tech/intel guy...
Do it! If you want to get a quintessentially 'American' experience, then a week-long road trip down historic Route 66 is about as good as you can get. The only other thing you'd need is a pink Cadillac to make the drive, with perhaps a gun and some stolen money in the glove box...
Uh, yeah... this may happen. Especially if we veer north and hit Vegas, that may triple the cost of the trip right there
