Installed the 18" Wheels on the Duster

I hear ya there. I remember renting a car when my truck had total exhaust manifold failure and I wasn't quite 25. That was rough. Figures they fixed the truck for free under the emissions warranty but I probably had a rental car for 36 hrs and I think it was damn near $180.

That would be quite a roadtrip with the Dart. 2260 miles or so, about 32 hrs one way. Probably cheaper to rent a car still!

Probably cheaper, but not as fun. I think I rented an econo car for about $125-150 for 4 days through Orbitz. On top of that I got insurance for the whole trip for about $90. And then when I actually picked up the car, they decided to add an extra $250 because of my age (which was stated could happen on Orbitz's website). So, overall I spent about $500 on an econo car I barely drove 100 miles in. That's almost like throwing money away.

Well, a 1 week (maybe more) long vacation in the Dart driving approximately 5000 miles can't be too bad. It sure would be memorable as I could make some stops along the way. It would probably cost $200-300 more in gas, but at least I'll actually have a car to drive down Woodward and enjoy. The only issue I'd have is if something went wrong or broke along the way.
