Best/Affordable Commute route from Los Angeles to Pocatello?
Ok... this one's a toughie... I'm traveling from Los Angeles, CA to Pocatello, ID...
Originally planned to Drive up, 12hr min commute, 5 passengers in a 5 seater
-- If using personal car (gas fees $150-$250) economy size car ... ugh... sooo crowded...
-- Total cost for mini SUV - $700-$800 ($550 car rental and $150-$250 gas?)
Greyhound - 21HR - 2 transfers $2000 total round trip (5 ppl)
United Airlines/Delta = $500-$550/person total $2500 - $3000 round trip
Does anyone know of any other public commute systems that goes from Los Angeles to Idaho???
I couldn't figure out if the Metro Link goes that far, or if Amtrak is an option.
Thank you!!

I would have to say commute isn't the best term for the type of trip you are suggesting. A rental vehicle would be best if traveling with 5 people as Greyhound has very poor service and would require transferring to another company to complete the trip. Thrifty car rental would likely have the best deal on a weekly rate full size car. Another option would be to fly into Salt Lake City at a lower cost then take Salt Lake Express, a bus service linking Pocatello to the airport. Amtrak wouldn't work for that routing. Hope this helps a little.
