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).

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........ ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 07:16:56 AM PST US From: "James Dallas" Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Brodhead --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "James Dallas" Yes the Hatz will be there again this year.

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.
