Will be flying into Dallas from Long Island (non stop from JFK likely). Renting a car then spending a day in Waco. Wife wants to see the Magnolia place the fixer upper people have. Kind of a bargaining chip I got for her to go along with all this, lol
Then off to MD, pick up truck, return rental, then to NO for a day maybe 2. Stop in NC on the way north see some relatives. Then Wind Creek in Bethlehem PA before the final 3+ hours home.
Looking at early sept for the truck to come in. Maybe the oven will be turned down a little down there and wont be so hot.
What rental car company is being used that will offer drop off in Lake Charles?
I did it from Houston. I used Hertz but upon returning I saw signs for 4 other companies. Didn’t pay enough attention to remember them. Very tiny airport in Lake Charles.
I stayed 3 nights total on the trip.
Filled up 3 times with final fill in Baltimore. Didn’t fill here since prices are so much higher here. Waiting…
Used a total of 71.54 gallons up to Baltimore for a total of $383.68. (Chase freedom card gives 5% back this quarter at gas stations so that would lower it by $19.18.) Haven’t looked at toll charges yet. Arrived in Sayville with 3/4 tank still.
I see you’re here on the island so you’re technically not allowed on parkways. I took the BQE to the expressway. I’m sure I could have tried to play stupid with the Louisiana tags on it but since I have the class A he would say “nice try”. I’m sure not many get pulled over for that though
Well worth the trip since my price quote was 2800+
All good people at Mark Dodge!
