Now that I have an RV it changes my route planning a little (a V-10 in a 26' class A). It takes the moderate+ hills very nicely so far with only occasional shifts out of od. Seems to have pretty decent power. But I'll be sticking a 20' enclosed behind it adding another 5K.
I live near Highway 18 and Preston is not too far. According to some map programs they say 18 to I-90 S; on to Yakima and I-82 S; then I-97 S on to Grass Valley. This takes 4 hours (in a car) and is 250 miles.
The other way is South on I-5 to Portland and then I-84 E to I-97 S on to Grass Valley. This takes 5 hours (in a car) and is 292 miles.
I know how steep Snoqualmie pass is, but don't recall much of the topography beyond. If you're in a car and you just drive the size of the passes isn't real clear. But when you pull a load it becomes very, very clear.
Do I take the passes and beyond or is the I-5 direction the way to go?
