have one of your friends drive their car?

Your friends dont have a nicer car?..no problem! get a different set of friends?

judging by your internet persona- my guess is finding anybody else who will tolerate you for 2800 miles is going to be nearly impossible… my next suggestion would be AAA card (and a digital camera with a 2gb card so you can capture all the fail for us to see)

Traveling with a full gas can, with the exception of off roading when you have mounts to keep the can outside the vehicle, is just retarded.

Sounds like big trouble. You’re going to need plenty of legal advice before this thing is over. As your attorney, I advise you to rent a very fast car with no top. And you’ll need the cocaine. Tape recorder for special music. Acapulco shirts.
