Episode Description
The presenters are challenged with seeing if they can purchase a car for a road trip in the United States for less than it would cost to rent one for the same trip. They are given $1000 to purchase a car in the city of Miami, Florida, their starting point, and drive them all the way to New Orleans, Louisiana where they will end up selling it to make some money back. In this instance though this episode took place a couple years after the devastating hurricane Katrina and the presenters instead decided to donate their vehicles.
