How to compile a list of expenses for a road trip?

I’m planning a 2 or 3 month road trip starting in Indiana, going to Northern California, heading down the coast to LA, then going back east following the border all the way to Washington and then back to Indy.

Its going to be in my Ford Mustang – one last hoorah before college. I need to get a list of expenses and I don’t know where to go (further than I’ve gotten)

I’ve gotten gas and lodging covered. We’ll be staying with friends and family along the route (I have friends scattered throughout the country thanks to my travels with my parents). Gas is obvious.

I don’t know how much to budget for food. I do plan on eating on the cheap till we get to San Diego, there we plan on having a big reunion type dinner with my cousins and uncles out there. In Hollywood, we’ll be treating ourselves. But other than that, it’ll be on the cheap.

I know I’ll need an oil change once or twice, and maybe even new tires.

What else do I need to take into account?

Thanks

Which Redwood Park is the best?

I’m planning a trip and I’ve noticed there are at least 3 Redwood State parks and 1 Redwood National park. I only have time to go to one. Which do you recommend?

Can I use wood stain that's been previously frozen?

It’s Olympic Redwood Naturaltone. It’s been in our shop for a few years and been through freezing temps on several occasions. I tried some on a scrap and it looks great, it’s just that the stain itself (liquid, in the can) has a very slight "clabbered" look to it, like there’s a slight film of something floating on top. Like I said, it’s very minimal and I probably wouldn’t have noticed if I hadn’t been looking closely. So, what does freezing actually DO to stain?

trip to northern California redwoods?

For the past few years i have become increasingly interested about going on a northern California hiking/ camping trip to the great redwoods. However i have done alot of research and would still like to get the perspective of someone who’s been or hopefully even lives in nor. cal. What i am looking to do is find out what the best places in northern California are for hiking in the mountainous redwoods, overlooking beautiful lakes and breathtaking natural wonders and scenery, (natural dirt paths, not paved) . My main research on the trip has been mostly looking into Humboldt county and the surrounding cities and have heard about the amazing redwood hikes, bikes and walks that the small towns offer. I would ultimately like to go up there for at-least a few days and really get a wholesome experience of nature at it’s finest. Lush redwood trails that lead to mountain view and lake views, any help would be much appreciated, thank’s guys.

What part of the Redwood Forest is best for lodging/camping and exploring?

I’m trying to plan a vacation to the Redwood Forest for Spring Break and I’m looking for suggestions on the best places to stay in the National Park. I don’t know much about the area, but I’m looking for something that will be right in the Park itself with lots of hiking and exploring at easy access. I’ve heard there is also a beach area, so that could be a possibility as well. Nothing crazy expensive, but in the 0-200/night range for hotels. Camping is also a possibility. I just need to know the best areas to look that offer the most breath taking scenery. I want this to be an unforgettable experience! Thank you.

It’s only about 30-40 minutes away by car. It was supposedly mailed to me this Monday. Some people say it should get there next day, but it didn’t. I checked the mail yesterday (Tuesday) and nothing. Should I expect something today? Thanks!
