Good morning everyone, happy Labor Day! I’m sure everyone is off on their own adventures today, but I wanted to get some reader feedback. I’m about 1,000 years behind on trip reports, but I am going to try to catch up by covering a few weekend trips that I have taken over the past couple months. I’m not a huge fan of writing or reading trip reports, but I know there are some ~~weirdos~~ normal people out there that do enjoy them. Without further ado, please vote up to 3 times on the weekend trip reports you want to read. If you love all trip reports, just choose that option. If you hate all trip reports, just choose that option. Thank you for your feedback and opinions! The list is ordered by most recent at top.

Want to go on a Roadtrip? TransferCar has Several 1 Way Car & RV Rentals Available

Posted on September 3, 2016 by Grant. 3 Replies

Good afternoon everyone, I hope your long Labor Day Weekend is going well. Last year, my brother and I drove an RV from Los Angeles to Denver, stopping at several national and state parks along the way. We used a service called TransferCar (based in Australia / New Zealand) that coordinates 1 way car and RV rentals. It is a relocation service, whereby the car and RV rental companies would rather have individuals (like you and me), drive the cars and RVs for $1-$5 per day, instead of paying hundreds of dollars to transport the cars and RVs back to their primary location. I documented the entire trip process here, if you want to learn more:

Anyway, it’s been a while since I was on TransferCar’s website, but they have a ton of car and RV rentals available. Most rentals are $1-$5 per day and some even include gas credit and a travel allowance.
