Road trips were designed with places like South Dakota in mind. Venture to Rapid City and you’ll have the chance to cruise with relatively little traffic, up and down the pine forests and granite passes of the Black Hills and through the awesome lunar-like landscape of Badlands National Park.  Add the most famous sculpture in the country, Mount Rushmore National Monument, and the herds of bison and bighorn sheep in Custer State Park (known for its great hiking) and you have a driving destination that’s hard to top. And all of these sights are in a state known for its affordability.  Whaddya waiting for?
