Ben, I did that at Carson City last year.  Flew into Vegas, rented a Pontiac GTP and drove to Carson City.  Went on all the cruises just like everyone else.  I was the last one, in case someone had trouble.  No one did.  Had a ball, so feel free to join the gang.

I won't have a Vette either.  I'll try to ride shotgun of anyone going solo. If not, I'll bring up the rear in my rental.  dwright usually lets me ride with him.  I even got to drive his last year!!
