Driving to Alaska...

[greenspeed]

I got a job in Alaska for the summer and am trying to get my road trip planned for going up there. Since a great deal of the trip is in Canada. I just have a few questions. What should I expect to pay per liter for 93 on the trip? Also any places I should stop at and check out?

I just graduated college and money is a little tight. So most nights will mostly be spent in my car sleeping. However I do want to get a hotel in Edmonton and check things out because it has always been one of those places I've wanted to stop.

Here is my trip thus far:

Any input helps. Thanks

I live 12 miles from canada, yeah you are going to need a passport. Right now expect to pay about 3.50 US a gallon

I was going to travel with it anyways...I have one from my trip to Oz...so figured since I had it i should bring it...only $3.50 that's way less then I expected...plus i get a 1.2 exchange i think :)

Few things to check before you head out on the road.

- Change your oil and top off all your fluids. Especially our windshield washer
fluid.
- Inflate proper PSI in tires and check spare tire.
- Bring blankets, pillows, something confortable.
- Trash bags...something to throw your trash in when you're on the road.
- Flash lights, batteries, jackand basic hand tools incase you break down in
the middle of nowhere.
- And some good music!
