Pacific Coast Highway Road Trip

Just a few pictures I took during my 2 week trip up the pacific Coast Highway. These are all in California, I wasn't able to travel much of Oregon's coast and none of Washington's.

Also, before anybody says anything, new wheels and headlights are coming in a week or two so I'll fix the stance then.

Looks like a fun trip! What kind of mileage did you get on the trip?

Funny thing about the mileage. Sometimes it was atrocious, sometimes it was excellent. Didn't matter if I was in the mountains or flat empty roads. The only thing I could think of is the type of gas. I always used premium, but I wonder if the brand had anything to do with it. I honestly didn't care what gas station I went to.

I went from San Diego to the middle of Oregon, then cross country to North Carolina and back to Arizona, so roughly 8,000 miles in 3 weeks. My front bumper is covered in rock chips now :.(

Woa RIWWP, now that's some planning right there. I was going to plan everything similarly but my brother (Type A personality) was coming along, I was going to drive and he was going to navigate and he planned most of it so I pretty much just let him do his thing and tell me where to go. Worked out pretty good actually.
