I should be able to explore the whole US from my house but it isn’t even remotely possible due to cost

Doesn't the US still have pretty cheap long distance bus services? Certainly ~15-20 years ago when I was bumming around North America I could get almost anywhere for less than $100 if I wasn't too much in a hurry.

When I check the bus fares they aren’t that cheap either. Certainly higher than just paying for the gas in your own car and driving there, so that’s what we do.
