om...
as the title says i am planning a trip round america i would like to
drive that way i can come and go as i please no bus time tables etc, i
have looked around the internet but cant find much in the way of
information on this.

I actually know someone who bought a car to tour the US. He was from NZ and
I met him while I was touring that country. He told me he did it (this was
several years ago) by misrepresenting some information (OK, he lied about a
number of things). That how he was able to registered the car. Still he
drove without insurance.

So I think you'd be taking some risk to buy a car and hope to sell it back
in some later day.

You can of course rent a car to tour around the US. Plenty of people do
that, and it's perfectly legal.


Can anyone help ? has anyone done this before?

many thanks
Graham
