I drive this all the time and people keep telling me Im going the LONG way.
Whats the quickest route from Stockton to Yuma? I usually (unless the Grapevine is closed) take 99 all the way to the Grapevine and over through LA, through Indio and then into El Centro to Yuma.
Otherwise I will take 58 out of Bakersfield to I40 through Havasu/Parker and down through Quartzsite in to Yuma. This ALWAYS takes me longer but people swear its quicker....am I missing something or is there a different route.
AND DONT anyone tell me a plane ticket is quicker either.......... :hammerhea

If you really want to make good time, you got to travel at night. Leave your house at 9pm. Pack a gun too.

I usually do go at night and I always make better time but I hate driving that after a full day at work. Im usually beat by the time I hit Norco or Indio and then I start hallucinating if jabber jaws isn't with me for the ride.
AND I always carry a gun. Its stupid not to anymore, especially a female traveling alone with my daughter.

Get some starbucks before you leave. Also, take a 30 minute nap before you take off. I love traveling at night, for some reason the excitement of the trip wakes me up....

especially a female traveling alone with my daughter.
If you're traveling with your daughter, are you really alone? Or is that alone together? Or just plain together. :D

depends on what mood her daughters in...you could be alone or wish you were!!! she'd kick my ass if she read that, actually she's a great kid...I don't think she could drive a boat better than her mom but great kid...still can't understand why she likes TONY S so much...funny thing is my daughter thinks he's the shit too!!
so is she really alone or alone together....Guess Traci will have to answer this one....

On the topic, I like the 99-58-40 myself. Quite a few more places to stop if you need to and with the 5 all it takes is a couple of big rigs drag racing side by side (at 56mph) to really ruin my trip!
