Up State New York Road Trip Ideas for Fall

Remember when you were a kid and your parents would pile the whole family into the old station wagon and take an impromptu day trip to Upstate New York?  If you were really lucky, your father might have turned it into a two-or-three-day event, complete with an overnight stay at a Howard Johnson hotel. Mom would pack a picnic lunch of sandwiches and a Thermos of coffee or hot chocolate.  A blanket was spread on the ground for this picnic lunch after everyone climbed out of the cramped car to stretch their legs and give Dad a respite from the driving.

New Jersey Road Trip Ideas for Fall

New Jersey is the fourth smallest state in the union, but has the eleventh-highest number of people.  In fact it has the highest population density (or number of people for the amount of land) in the U.S.  So here’s a hint – be sure to visit this state in the off season when the tourists have all gone home.

Because the Garden State is so small, it will take you approximately four hours to get from High Point, in the Skylands Region, which is the highest elevation in the state at 1,803 feet, all the way to Cape May Point in the south, but, unbelievably, if you cross New Jersey in an east to west direction, it can be done in just one hour.

Types of Rental Cars

There’s no doubt that when you’re planning a vacation, you want things to go as chaos-free as possible. Planning a vacation can be a full-time job in itself, especially if you wait too long or don’t have all the important details ironed out ahead of time. Renting a car or a minivan may not seem like such a big deal, but if you don’t rent the right type of vehicle for your needs and you don’t reserve your rental car well in advance of your vacay, you could end up with major trouble on your hands. You could even lose money or precious vacation days trying to find alternative transportation at the last minute. Following is information on car and the different types of rental cars available.

Planning a Road Trip

Road trip, oh yeah!! Taking a road trip is something that should be on … and then checked off … every American’s bucket list. There’s nothing like getting in your car and setting out across the country on a scenic venture from one state to the next. Nothing else can make you feel freer, and no other vacation adventure will afford you the enjoyment you can experience on a fun and frolicking road trip. But what about that car thing? Do you really want to take your car all that way, putting all those extra miles on it? Will your car even take the wear and tear that a road trip across country likely will put it through? A road trip can give you and your loved ones the experience of your life, but not if your car isn’t up to the challenge. For most people in Jersey City and throughout the country, the best thing to do when planning a road trip is to opt for car rental. Here are some tips on planning the most enjoyable road trip possible.
