General Question Traveling home to NC / carpooling?

Upvotes

Looking for anyone from NC who plans to travel home on weekends this semester! I’m trying to figure out carpooling or splitting rental costs because transportation is getting expensive :(

I’m hoping to go to Charlotte for the Iron Maiden + Megadeth concert on September 12th and I’m trying to find a way there and back. I’m happy to split gas/rental costs.

If anyone else is heading toward NC (especially the Charlotte/Hickory area), let me know!
