    I'm new to VMB but not to Vegas. I travel to Vegas at least once a year, two or three times some years. One year I even made the cross country drive. Another year was for my honeymoon. My first trip was at the age of 21.

    I hope to learn some new tricks, tips and secrets from the Vegas veterans and share some of mind.

    Happy Travels!
    Shawn

    It was a one way drive. I had a leased truck and could drop it off at any Toyota dealership, so why not one in Vegas.

    Saco is where I'm at. I like the coast but I also head inland (3hr North) to the Sebec Lake any chance I get.

    Welcome to VMB Shawn!

    I'm also from Maine (but live in Florida during winter.) Picture is our little central Maine escape (May thru Sept)! Vacations are cruises, beach and Las Vegas. A wealth of information here and it's a great place to satisfy that Vegas drive between visits!
