La To Ny In 7 Days- Need Help Please :)

[rebecca]

Hi! I'm planning a road trip leaving July from LA to NY. I need to complete the trip in seven days. I am driving in a jeep 20mpg. I don't want to spend more than $2000. I could really use some tips on the top attractions along the way that I shouldn't miss and could fit into 7 days, so I can mapquest them all out etc... There are two drivers. Also where can I look to find lodging along the way? I am planning to also pack the jeep with my belongings (all in sealed boxes- I am moving it is just clothes though) I would like to plan all this before as we are also travelling with a two year old. This is my first road trip :) and I have hardly seen anything along this route so all your help/ tips are greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!!
