Alden Finver – 18
Nicknames: Fin, Finny, Bird
Future Occupation: United States Army This is literally Alden's last hurrah with his friends. Alden will be heading down to Fort Benning Georgia to commence paratrooper training, as he is enlisting as a solider in the United States Army two weeks after they make it back to New Hampshire. Like his friends, Alden has been looking forward to this trip since his freshman year in high school when he and Russ first hatched the "road trip" plan. Quiet, but quick, Alden proves himself invaluable on the trip when the boys are faced with a challenge they may or may not overcome.

Ben Wyatt – 18
Nicknames: Benny, Sir Benjamin, Benihana
Attending Marist College in the fall on a full football scholarship, Benny is the jock of the group. Unfortunately, Benny could only stay for the first couple days of the trip, due to a scheduling conflict with his football team's training camp. His departure signaled the beginning of a time in the guys' lives where they are staring to be pulled away from home and into their adult lives, making this trip all the more memorable.

Jason Roark – 19
Nicknames: Jay, Long Division
Future Occupation: Rescue EMT
While he may seem a little slow on the outside, Jason is quicker and funnier than you may think. Always the one to provide some levity in a time of crisis or seriousness, Jason makes the trip better by simply being there. Best friends with Logan and Russ since the 3rd grade, Jason has been attached at the proverbial hip with this group since he was little, enhancing the meaning of the trip that much more for him.

Joe Peterson – 18
Nickname: Joey
Future Occupation: Chef
Also known as "Snorlax," due to his excessive sleep patterns on the trip, Joey's house was used as the headquarters of the “road trip” operation of the trip while they prepared the bus for the trek to The Price is Right. After they get back Joey will be attending Johnson and Wales Culinary School, in the hopes of becoming a top flight chef. He may have found another profession on the trip though, seeing as Joey became the un-official photographer for the group.

Kyle Smith – 18
Nicknames: Smith, Kick-a-da K. (But NEVER Kyle!)
With aspirations of becoming a tattoo artist after the trip, there were a couple of stops along the way to L.A. that piqued Smith’s interest…again; you’ll have to watch the show to find out! Ironically, Smith was the father-figure of the group, calming everyone down and making the bumps along the way much easier and more manageable as the boys forged their way to California. After the trip is over, Smith hopes to take the bus out again on ANOTHER road trip with his friends…only if the bus can make it!

Logan Moore – 18
Nicknames: Logan
Future Occupation: Track Coach
Logan proved invaluable on the trip, serving as the group’s in house mechanic. If there was something wrong with the bus, Logan could fix it…usually. After the trip Logan will be attending Boston University in the fall on a track and field scholarship. His main goal for trip is to enjoy this last time with his friends before they all go their separate ways. Another definite goal for him is making it to L.A. so he could take a dip in the Pacific Ocean and he how much different it is than the Atlantic. Look for Logan to either be driving or playing his guitar the whole way across the country.

Peter Cataldi – 18
Nicknames: Pete, Petey C, Peter Francis, Turtle
Future Occupation: Construction / Contractor
As the baby of the group, Pete had the distinct honor of celebrating his 18th birthday during the trip with an activity in Chicago his parents didn't necessarily approve of…(You’ll have to watch the show to find out.) Never one to shy away from a good joke, Pete dished out the insults just as much as he received them. Known as the "comedian" of the trip, Pete kept things light on the long drives from city to city. Pete was a two year varsity starter for their high school football team and also started at first base for varsity baseball. He'll be attending Fitchburg State in the fall.

Kyle Roy – 19
Nicknames: Roy, Royzershrek (Also never KYLE!)
Future Occupation: Sports Management
Known as "the hobbit" in the group, "Roy" is the oldest one going on the trip. While attending Franklin Pierce College in NH, Roy plans to continue to play lacrosse (he was the captain of his high school team) while he works toward his degree in Sports Management.

Russell MacDougall - 19
Nicknames: Russ, Pants
Future Occupation: Teacher
The ringleader of the trip, Russ was involved in everything from the planning of the cross-country journey to the re-construction of the bus. After the life he has already had, Russ was more than excited to get this trip underway. Because both his parents passed away before his 4th birthday, the guys on this trip are more than just friends to Russ; they have literally been his family. For the last year he has spent time living with Joey, Alden, and Jason, and will now leave Merrimack to begin college at Keane State in the hopes of earning a degree in Education and becoming a high school history teacher.

Shaun Sullivan – 19
Nicknames: Sully
Future Occupation: Firefighter
Sully is the one guy in the group who can always take the speed bumps as they come, never faltering in his positivity about the trip and the ultimate goal. Looking to be a firefighter after the conclusion of the trip, Sully was the star of the guys’ high school football team and he flashes his athletic skills in Cleveland when the guys come up with an idea most would never attempt to try. Constantly laughing and joking, Sully is one of Russ’ and Joey’s best friends and the experience of the trip is “indescribable” to him.
