Anyone ever been? I'm here at the moment all be it me flying home in a couple hours, been to Orlando and it's absolutely amazing! We were worried about hurricane Irene though as we are on a connecting flight to philidelphia! Love the country though, the fuel prices, but my god there taste in cars is shocking!!

"the troll hunter" with added boost!
The towns and cities aren't the best bits imo, the national parks (Yosemite is somewhere I've wanted to go back to since we went) are the best bits and will literally make you just stand and stare with your mouth open.
Been wanting to go back and rent a bike for a week but sadly not found a willing riding buddy yet!

Love the place, like the people. I was in Indiana for 2 weeks last month, have relatives there. Fuel prices are about 4 times what they were 10 years ago, I was horrified it cost my $50 to fill up MIL's Cooper S and $80 to fill her X5, this sounds cheap compared to our prices but is much more than it was relatively recently.
It's $3.40 to the gallon over here!!
We had a dodge grand caravan people carrier and it was awful was averaging 13mpg then on highway at 65 was averaging 25mpg lmao!!
The cars over here are shocking 90% are people carriers or 4x4s!
Long flight ahead of me now.
Loved the water parks and busch gardens!!

it was around $1/gallon. And most interesting things there need super which is closer to $4.00. Plus 1 US gallon = 3.74 litres, not the 4.54 litres that an imperial gallon equals.
Also don't forget they don't have any more economical options, no diesel (at least very few options), and things are further away, so you need the car more.

Totally agree with you mate, don't mind a med holiday, but Florida is the best place by far.
And as for cars lol although I did see a surprising amount of mustangs out there, all being driven by 18 yr olds... *******s!
I hope so, theres 6 of us going its a combined thing for my GF's 21st and my sisters 30th.
Got a strip view suite at the monte carlo... Can't wait!!!
I wouldn't mind doing more of america though like Luke and Tom and see some of the parks, and other cities. One day I'll save up enough to get a muscle car and go for a blast around... one day...
