Of course, if you are sticking to public transit, your options to see anything other than cities will be fairly limited.

Otherwise, what kinds of questions do you have, or advice are you looking for?
*Any suggestions/personal perspective for good hostels ( or inexpensive hotels) in any of the cities that I mentioned?
*Advice on ways to budget for the road trip? (This will be my first time)
