Considering the drive I am referring to has always been from One side of US to the other back and forth numerous times, there is simply no other way. I already drive much less than must citizens because I work from home, but when I go on a road trip and want to see the good ole beautiful US, I dont do it on a greyhound bus or some imaginary subway you envision. When you are travelling close to 3000 miles one way and 3000 miles back, there is no public method, and it surely wont be "good for the environment" and will most likely be powered by petroleum anyway.
Road trips are made for two things: harleys or cars, period.
When I hit the road it will never be on a bus, id hitch hike before that
