Two of us are travelling to the United States in July/August 2005. We land in
New York and intend to visit Rhinebeck, Brodhead and Oshkosh. We would like to
purchase a car somewhere near New York. Can someone suggest or advise where
to start looking for one and the approximate cost we would be looking at. The
car would need to be reliable to travel from Oshkosh onto Los Angeles (our road
trip).

Pieters,
Pending any objections from the list I accept the challenge and will post a
daily sheet of Gantzer "happenings". Not sure I'll be able to present those
Iowa "incidents" in written form

Preliminary Itinerary:
It looks like I'll be departing Cook Airfield on Wednesday, July 20, in the early
morning...say around 10:30 am. I've never flown up around the North side
of Kansas City, so I'll pick up a precise heading of anywhere between 360=BA
and 020=BA. Maintain that course till I have to go pee...probably 2 or 3 hours.
Find some fuel & services, show all the locals my plane, and tell them where
I'm coming from and going...that takes about 1 1/2 hours. If the winds are
strong out of the South, I might be up into Iowa, before I get 'er to turn right.
I met a gal on the Internet that lives in Sioux City Iowa, and I plan on
stopping there and meet her. If things go well, I might not even make it to
Brodhead, or I might have a passenger with me !! Hummm...I'll have to figure
out how to strap the cargo on the belly of the plane.
Don't even! It would be much more fun for her if you let her sit up in the front
seat........

Buying a car here can be a real pain. You will have to get insurance and all.
Why not think about renting? There are some really good deals with unlimited
mileage, then you dont have to worry about selling when you are done and insurance
is covered. In most states here if you are caught driving without insurance
your in big trouble.
To answer your primary question, a good dependable car can be purchased for very
little $1000-2000 and up, depending on what you want. The route you describe
is a total of about 3000 miles without side trips. I think that you would be
able to rent for $200 per week.
Hope to see you at Broadhead.
