大家好，
本人和內人計畫於今年九月中旬前往美國開車自由行，預計從LA進，開到New York之後，再開回頭，目前計畫的路徑如下:
From To miles Stay
LAX Las Vegas, NV 286.7 2
Las Vegas St. George, UT 125.1 1
St. George Panguitch, UT 109.5 1
Panguitch Salt Lake City, UT 250 1
Salt Lake City Jackson, ID 300.6 1
Jackson West Yellow Stone, MT 125.4 3
West Yellow Stone Sheridan, WY 368.2 1
Sheridan Rapid City,SD 243.1 2
Rapid City Sioux Falls,SD 348.0 1
Sioux Falls La Crosse, WI 298.6 1
La Crosse Chicago, IL 283.0 3
Chicago Detroit, MI 280.3 1
Detroit Buffalo, NY 273.5 2
Buffalo Boston, MA 454.8 3
Boston New York 215.9 12
New York Pittsburg, PA 369.1 1

Austin El Paso, TX 576.3 1
El Paso Phoenix, AZ 429.4 1
Phoenix Williams, AZ 176.5 3
Williams, AZ LAX 447.7 0
這樣的安排，必定是得開不少的車，不過考量到路程之後，應該在可以接受的範圍之內，不過由於上述的點幾乎都沒有去過，所以想請各位能夠提供一些建議，例如住哪裏(預算大約平均1晚70美元)？吃什麼?有何建議必遊的點?謝謝！

她是月光久抱必涼
我大概算了一下，到紐約州的時間大約是10/5左右，希望已經可以看到楓紅了，幾年前的十月底在華盛頓州有過看一整片的，滿美的！
康乃爾在台灣的知名度還真低啊, 還要抬出 李登輝 才有人知道 :'(
不哭,不哭 :-) 不會沒知名度啦.我以前大學時代就知道Cornell了呀.
記得array說過在Cornell唸過,所以那一區聽array的不會錯啦.我蠻久以前去的,只記得一路一大堆state parks,也記不得去了哪一個了.記得也看到一個很不錯的瀑布,也許就是array說的吧.
不過樓主說他9月中旬才到美國,根據他的行程規劃,到了紐約州北部也該是10初中了.秋色該有了.
另外9月中到10月底不會到9點多才日落.北部9月中下旬大約7點多日落,10月的話約6點多.越往南當然就越早.過了夏令時間5點多就開始暗了.日出日落時間查詢:

瘋人院裡瘋人怨
給點我的建議....
Jackson West Yellow Stone, MT 125.4 3
有沒有考慮順便去 Glacier National Park 冰河國家公園? 我覺得很漂亮
出Yellow Stone NP 建議走東北入口, Beartooth Scenic Highway非常美麗
這個之間有想過，不過距離還是有一些，去一趟恐怕要多花好幾天，所以只有暫時放棄！不過還是謝謝您的建議！
Sheridan Rapid City,SD 243.1 2
Rapid City Sioux Falls,SD 348.0 1
這個我覺得除了總統頭, Badland NP 最値得去, 其餘 soso...
Devil's Tower 有點不值得, 因為我去十原路去原路回, 要接近看還要票, but 我在到 Devil's Tower 之前就迴轉了.....因為沿途已經遠遠的看到不想看了 ^-^
Jewel Cave 如果你要順便去看, 走下去岩洞的話你時間應該不夠 ^-^
謝謝您的建議！ :-)

訫無雜念
我個人認為Devil's Tower很值得進去一看.近看的詭異與震懾感是遠看不能比擬的.近看還可看看攀岩的活動.我想樓主有意購買National Park Pass.有這Pass就不用再額外付錢了.
倒是覺得Wind Cave,如果你不是地質學家的話,可能會有點失望.因為它不是一般人想像的漂亮的鐘乳石洞穴.而是一種特殊的盒狀(boxwork)岩層.我們是參加Candlelight Tour.也就是全程提著蠟燭燈籠探險.當時我們覺得Tour本身的趣味多過洞內景色.或許多少是因為與期望(以為是鐘乳石洞)有落差吧.這裡有張洞內的模樣

More on AAA:
1) I believe anyone could be an AAA member, it is a yearly membership. When you receive AAA services the only requirement is showing a valid AAA membership card and your driver license (with matched name). You could join it online (as other backpacker friends have suggested) or have your US friend to purchase an AAA membership for you; this way you will get the membership card before your road trip. Many attractions and hotels on the road will give discounts to AAA members.
2) If your rental car has mechanical problems then the car company will replace the car. If there are any road hazards then I think you have to fix it first. AAA provides some roadside services free for their members; like flat tires, dead battery, lockout, out of gas, towing (distances are depending on the membership classes). Road hazards may never happen -- those services are just for having a peace of mind.
3) AAA not only provides city/state/US maps free to their members, they also have an excellent state tour book which is updated yearly (they are free too). Another free service for their auto traveling members is the personalized TripTik tour guide.
Two other suugestions:
1) Some rental car contracts only allow you to drive within the state or go thru its neighborhood states. So be sure ask your rental car company first.
2) Try to borrow a cell phone from your friends or buy a phone card for the trip. Phone cards at Costco or Sam's are cheaper -- $20 for 700 domestic minutes.

謝謝您的提醒，我看過合約，是可以跨州的，沒有限制。 ;-)

我會帶一支三頻手機過去，我想我也會去美國買個門號，不過我不清楚您說$20 for 700 domestic minutes是指限定某一州，還是全美國？只有一種卡嗎？

我沒有野心只想要你
The phone card I mentioned is good within the US (I did use it from Texas to Hawaii but never try to call Alaska). I think it is a very good deal especially for the trip. The phone card will also work for foreign countries with much higher minute rate. If you're calling from a payphone then it will also deduct about 65 cents(?) from the phone card's balance. My MCI phone card is getting from Costco, I think Sam's phone card is AT&T.

謝謝您的說明。另外，應該只要有Costco的卡就可以買了，還是要像在台灣買卡要登記證件什麼的嗎？

舊言虐心
我也很想了解ㄟ~ 是需要登記嗎??謝謝
明人不放暗屁
請問sm你所說的是prepaid calling card 還是可以用於手機的電話卡？
我覺得你提到的好像是用在公共電話或市內電話的prepaid calling card
我想他們(包括我自己)想了解的是可以用於手機裡的
在台灣叫"易付卡"美國這也有類似的，不知哪一家便宜?
謝謝
