Application for the ILLEST ROAD TRIP OF ALL TIME ©

If you received this application it means you may be selected to appear on “Illest Road Trip of
All- Time.” IRT is a new show where groups of people get $24,500 for a road trip that will be a
“unique, life -changing, and eminently watchable experience. ” The money you spend will mainly
go towards two things; your vehicle (rental and gas), and your daily expenses (Hotel and Food).
Plan carefully, if you do not plan to spend at least $23,500 of the money, your application
will be rejected.
The possibilities for your trip are limited only by your ability to budget the money. MTV can
drive its production vans anywhere in North America and has relationships with gas stations,
hotels, and restaurants to provide you with what you need to finish your journey. You can take as
many as you wish stops as long as you start and finish in New York City. You could take a trip
as short as 1 week or as long as 31 Days. You can use the money on a solo drive from the
beaches of Cancun to the Mountains of Alaska and stop by California on your way back. The trip
cannot go across the Atlantic Ocean to Europe, or across any other body of water, because a
“Road Trip” needs to take place on an actual road, not a boat. You can also use your money to
take up to 7 of your friends on a lavish trip up and down the Jersey Shore.
MTV wants to support an impressive and detailed trip, and one of the most important things to
show, is that you can manage the money well. That means you need your trip to fall between
$23,500 and $24,500. As long as the ideas are well thought out, MTV will consider any
proposal.
