You can drive, cycle or walk, it's only 2651 km.

If you drive, then your car could do about 700km with a tank (if you
drive at 90-100km/h) - that would be 4 tanks, or around $230 each way.

If you cycle, it would cost you food for 16 nights, around $400 each
way.

If you walk, you'd need to get food for 66 nights, or about $1650 each
way.

I suppose you could hitch-hike.

You could share a car with four others, that would then cost $60 each.

Over to you.
