Greetings, and welcome to the Forum!

How long the trip takes you depends on what route you take and what kind of road trip you choose. If you do a straight shot speed-run, you can easily make it into New York from LA in 3-5 days. However, if you're going to sight-see and zig-zag your way across the country, you could see anything from 7-days to a month or more. It all depends on you, what you want to see or how fast you need to get there.

We could help with a route, but we would all need to know if you need to get to New York ASAP or if you can take your time. It will make big differences in what routes we suggest!
