IA to CA

[SoCalEd]

Flying in to pick up my truck at Granger today. I’ll be heading west to NorCal, an easy 26 hours on the I-80.

I plan on stopping at Lincol,NE and Salt Lake.
Recommendations for good food or a quick pit stop appreciated.

That's awesome! I made the trip last year to Granger for a Bronco and it was great.

Safe travels back home.

SoCal, what time are you getting into Granger. I am landing in Des Moines about 11:30.

Around 2:30 assuming the Denver layover does not get messed up.

You mean you don't have every possible Pit Stop planned in redundancy for regular breaks for the whole trip laid out already?

​

I stayed the night in IA, then did Denver and St George as my nights.

I got nothing special for Nebraska, except no desire to go back. I will take any day on the 405 versus the Thunderdome that is the I-80 through NE.

Only stop of note I made was at a Runza just after the Great Platte River Road Archway Monument. Regional chain for quick food that was pretty solid. I ended up having no time for any semi interesting stops as I had a date to make in Denver and 11 hours of drive time planned.

Only thing in the list that might make a good leg stretch (isn't a museum of some kind)
20th Century Veterans Memorial

Safe travels.

Granger is awesome. Picked up at the airport. 30 minutes to go over tech, sign, and get the keys. Got the funky vents. Should get $50 dollars back and the inserts at some point in the next 6 months.

Glad I did not lose the heated seats and steering wheel like MY23.

Congrats! Seems the vents are luck of the draw, hopefully it doesn’t actually take 6 months
