Took the autocar once and never will do it again. Rooms were much too small, bunk beds not comfortable and the upper bunk is inches from the ceiling (hub took the upper having been used to the bunks in the Navy).

I didn't sleep a wink from the clanking of the wheels. Had to drive from MA to VA which was quite a haul and then the long train ride to Sanford then drive from Sanford to TV.

No way....we much prefer driving the distance (TV to MA) and stopping at our convenience. It takes three days but we take our time and mosey along and thoroughly enjoy staying over at the Hampton Inns along the way and then a delightful relaxing breakfast there before starting on the road again.
