I think it is clear that your original plan isn’t going to work.

You could ask yourself:

1) Why do I want to do this roadtrip? To have some independence? To see our great country? To have an adventure?

2) What is more important, doing this roadtrip as planned or doing something next summer? If the roadtrip is more important, then I would suggest doing some activities that would build up to this. Could you take shorter road trips? Could you camp locally?

If you want to do something next summer, figure out what is the most important thing from 1). Could you do some sort of organized (i.e.supervised) trip so you can have adventures away from home? Could you get a parent/relative to help drive?
