NEW YORK, May 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Two University of Florida students, Eric Schackne and Filup Molina, are traveling cross-country inside a Chevy Aveo -- a car they came to know intimately when they lived inside it for five days as part of the Chevy Aveo Livin' Large Campus Challenge last October.

Though the boys ultimately lost the challenge to USC contestants, Dolce Wang and Anna Grigoryan, the pair consistently entertained with their wit, charisma and humor. With graduation looming, the pair are using the road trip as an opportunity to hone their comedic skills in comedy clubs and improv theaters along their route from Gainesville, Fla., to Los Angeles. There, they will close out their week-long trip with a performance at the renowned Comedy & Magic Club in Hermosa Beach, Calif., where Jay Leno will be headlining.
The pair's cross-country road trip is being chronicled on Chevy's http://www.aveolivinlarge.com/ website, where users can follow the duo on their quest to make it big in the entertainment capital of the world -- Hollywood, Calif. Visitors can also track the duo along their route, view their daily videos and read their blogs.
