Hi guys, I am new to this forum. Thank you for letting me post my question.
Ive finished restoring an old VW Beetle. I am planning to do my first roadtrip with it.
Hi guys,
I am nearly done with my bug. I am planning a road trip from Chihuahua, Mexico to Montreal, Canada.
Now this is the route I will take:

My budget is 1000 to 1500 USD just to get there. This include the gas and the toll. I think the car can do 25 MPG average. I have many friends along the way that can host me, so if I need to stop to sleep , not going to cost me a dime. :)
Also I plan to eat some sandwiches along the way, so nothing fancy, no restaurant. Just the good old homemade food.
My questions are:
1) Since its my first big car road trip, how much miles/hours you think I can drive per day doing 60mph per hour (average) to get there (realistically) I would like to hear from your experiences.
2) Lets say I do not have any mechanical problem, is my budget realistic? How much you guys think I will spend on gas and toll?
Thank you
