I for one would be interested in this. Particularly the logistics and costs if you don't mind?I’ve got a bit of a road trip going on in California this year with 2 mates.
Start in San Francisco and end up in LA.
I’ll post the whole trip up if there’s interest? It’s 16 days of 3 blokes and a open road so to speak. We’re either going to kill each other or have the time of our lives [emoji23]
Back to kalkan in Turkey for a couple of weeks, self catering in a villa with pool.

That's a proper trip.Well here it is
This is per person so obviously times by 3 for all of us.
Everything is Airbnb apart from Pacific coast and palm springs
Flights £579
Day 1 is mostly travel to SFA. We arrive at 14:50. Booked for 3 nights cost £158
Car hire for 9 days is £167
Days 4-8 is the Pacific coast highway. Haven’t booked anything for this and we’re just going to stay in motels. Haven’t really checked the prices out yet or what we’re going to do (probably a wine tour)
Day 9 is stay at the top of LA with Griffith park observatory in the evening £55
Day 10 starts with Hollywood tour and a bit of mooching about.
Drive across to Palm Springs. 2 nights there £144
Day 12 we drive to San Diego 3 nights £152
Day 15 we drop the car off and get a train to LA £27
LA stay is £106
Fly home day 17.
We will have spending money for what we’re doing and the Pacific highway but this will be discussed at the next meeting (yes we’ve had meetings which have been minuted and a new itinerary printed for each of us)
Total cost so far is is just shy of £1400. I guess there another good £1100 to be spent so I’m looking at about £2500 but let’s face it. It’s not something I’m going to repeat ever again.

I would book accommodation in advance for Big Sur, it gets busy and you’ll regret not staying there..
