The streak is over
 
Well, after driving OTR for 10 and a half years, I have to make my first trip into California.

I deliver in Fontana on Sunday morning. Hoping they find me a preplan to get me right back out. Planning on staying at the AZ/CA border tomorrow night, then make a mad dash in-out of there on Sunday.

I'd rather go to Toronto.

it will be wide open heading that way on New Years Day. You should just take it all the way in. There will be plenty of parking anywhere(TA, Pilot or the J)

Sitting at the Flying J at exit 1 in AZ on I-10 now. Up until today, the furthest west I've been on I-10 was exit 103. OMG - that's the most boring stretch of highway I've ever been on (between the 103 & exit 17). Wow. I didn't know there were roads that long that didn't require so much as a slight turn of the steering wheel. I just hope they send me a different way when I head east again.

What helps on those long stretches, is if you can build up some steam.
I recommend about 80-85mph, and turn up the music. :)

I *WISH*!!! Tell ya what, driving from Fairmont, WV to El Paso, TX, then on to Fontana, CA is one HELL of a long drive in a 62mph truck.
