The plan was simple. Go to America. Buy a second-hand car. Drive coast-to-coast without giving any money to The Man. What could possibly go wrong? Dismayed by the relentless onslaught of faceless American chains muscling in where local businesses had once thrived Dave Gorman set off on the ultimate American road trip - in search of the true independent heart of the US of A. He would eat cherry pie from local diners re-fuel at dusty gas stations and stock up on supplies from Mom and Pop's grocery store. At least that was the idea. But when did you last see an independent gas station? Gamely Dave beds down in a Colorado trailer park sleeps in an Oregon forest treehouse and even spends Thanksgiving with a Mexican family in Kansas. But when his trip mutates into an odyssey of near-epic proportions and he finds himself being threatened at gun point in Mississippi Dave starts to worry about what's going to break down next. The car...or him?
