Hi,

I'm a 21 year old male. I want to drive to LA via my 4cyl. '93 Ford Mustang. I'm thinking of joining AAA just incase. In your opinion will I be able to find a place to stay somewhere in LA easily? I've flown to LA twice and stayed at a Hostel. I guess I can stay there for a few days til I find someone to room with or something. It may seem crazy but I love LA too much and if i'm gonna live a happy live I will have to go live there. What will be my estimated cost? I figured around $250-300 for gas, but I have no idea how many hotels/motels I'm going to have to stay at for $30-40 a night. I'll check out Super 8 motels and sign up for the rewards program. Food isn't a problem I'll go to supermarkets and makes sandwiches :)and occasionally eat at a fast food place. I'll make a few stops in a major city like in Texas or St. Louis and the Grand Canyon if I can but thats not a bid deal. I just I want to get to LA asap so hopefully it won't take more than 3-5 days. This will be my first time so if anyone can offer any opinions I will really appreciate it..thanks : )
