I know us 95 every well. I was born and raised in Blythe
When I hear the music, I know video is about over. ENJOYING travel "in my mind", isn't that what Mr Rogers told kids? Mind over matter, but I love feeling like I'm being driven out of town. Thanks Mr Russ! Happy Trails
By the look at the sky, it looks like there still Chem Trailing S Cal and Az.
Russ, be safe out there man. Those big rigs are insane.
Looks familiar, coming from Desert Center I missed the turn off at the rail road bridge and went straight to the Parker Dam on my way to camp with Hobotech at Lake Havasu back in March, and I was not allowed to cross the Dam in my camper van, and to make it worse I continued down that road until it started getting real narrow and steep, I finally was able to turn around and head back and made the turn into Parker then up to Lake Havasu, boy was I mad at myself....
Awesome outside today here in Golden Shores.
Just got back from Needles myself.
Hi Russ: When leaving Needles, the state line to get back into Arizona is at the crossing over the Colorado River. The Welcome to Arizona sign that you called out is actually about a half mile inside of Arizona, so when you were passing all of that stuff like the Mobil station and the car wash and announcing that you were almost back in Arizona, you actually were already in Arizona at that time.
An FYI for followers. There are RV places when you make the right turn after crossing the Colorado River in Earp. However, no trailers or RVs over Parker Dam.
Wyatt Earp had a house and mining claim in Vidal. The house still stands just south of the junction on 95. Its on the east side of the road by the RR tracks. Blue and White last time I saw it.
If someone wants to a Desert, U S 95 in Nevada is a drive not to forget... I was through there about 2 ...years ago
Sad to see the Rooster on the top of the old cafe building in Vida Junction gone. Cant wait I will be over this road in about 2 weeks.
Great stuff, thanks Russ!
GOOD Day Russ . Nice run up to Needles Take care on your way north 👍👍😊✌
The sky at 6:00 + looks like an Etch-a-Sketch.
I certainly agree that this stretch of 95 is actually frightening. I have travelled the world and visited 40 countries and driven in a lot of them but I first drove this highway back in 1992 and have driven it several times since. There’s no shoulders and a lot of drivers are crazy. Sam Kinison was killed in a head on crash. Scary highway.
you echoed what Russ emphasized on the video, I have driven this stretch from Needles to Vidal Junction several times including timeframe of the video, and it is as you said frightening.
Happy to see you’re back on the road!
Anybody ever see the book called Approaching Nowhere? There's a picture of Vidal Junction that's striking. Interesting to see it come to life.
Well done Russ!! Thx for sharing!!
I’m a trucker and I’m furious about that guy who made that dangerous pass. We’re not all like him. You described that highway exactly right, dangerous. I used to run it 4 times a week between NorCal and Phoenix,AZ.
Very sad to see what happened with that railroad bridge. Being a River Rat (going to Havasu Springs since I was 2) it was really sad to hear about that happening to that iconic bridge. Built in 1908. So sad.
Hope you are getting the Dessert 🧁 ready for the snow birds ! I like Key Lime Pie ! Russ your too busy, slo down and kick back and hang out in Quartzite and show us more stuff around home ! I like the loop you do in town. I usually Giggle it, cuz it is more funny ! Greet your inner weirdness my friend ! Oh Yeeeah !
Last year, my son and I drove down 95 from Vegas (stayed in Needles overnight) and continued on 95 to Vidal Station. Got snacks at the gas station there next to the inspection station. We then took 62 into the desert heading out to I-10. Saw plenty of trucks along 95 south of Needles but when we were on 95 north of Needles, it got dark, very dark, and we were the only car on the road. I have to say it was pretty spooky!
Hey Russ , sounds like your tires need to be rotated bud .
Or balanced??
Hey, Russ, where in Ohio are you from? I might here a little Cincinnati in your voice. And thanks for your videos. I miss seeing the stars like when I was little. Nice to know there are still places to see them.
Miles 'n miles of miles 'n miles...talk about wide open spaces!
Russ that US-95 has been used in quite a number of films. One that comes in mind ib Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas, the Hunter S. Thompson Biopic.
Lots of cemtrails at Videl
Drive safe !
Good one that’s good camping by Vidal junction awesome 👏🛠🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
In 1968 we moved from the San Fernando Valley to St. Pete, FL. We kept a subscription to the LA Times.
Once there was a classified offering the town of Vidal, just south of Vidal Jct, for sale. We made an offer of a trade for our prime Florida property and our service station for it. As a kid I was terrified we would end up moving to Vidal. Luckily the people were too old to want to deal with a service station, so they declined.
Hey Russ,
Just went that way a while back.
Just Perfect,
V MAN
What movies has that bridge in Parker been in?
would you drive by car at night (or after sunset) on US 62 between Vidal juntcion and Twentynine Palms
??? Thanks! :)
yes. carefully
Actually, Russ, there is a way to avoid most of those annoying traffic lights in Lake Havasu City. When traveling north on 95, turn left at London Bridge onto London Bridge Road. There is little traffic and no stoplights on this detour, only a few stop signs. London Bridge Road connects again with 95 just north of Walmart. Local folks know this is the best way to bypass many of thise annoying traffic lights.
I was checking gas prices in Needles. Very high. I was looking on the map and noticed that US 95 goes from Mexico to Canada.
For sixty years I've wondered why gas prices aren't an American major political issue. I paid as high as 5 a US gallon and fifty miles later as low as 2.50. State tax discounted, this gas comes from the SAME REFINERY and belongs to a grand total of three major gas companies. In most other countries you can drive a thousand miles and the prices are the same. Those three gas companies, and their law firms, are also the same law firms representing your elected officials!!!! i.e. Their execs. AND your Senators are on the SAME golf courses.
Wonder if Morsa Trucking knows they're on youtube breaking the law?
I love your video
Hey Russ, I'm a licensed commercial driver (school bus) I shared your video with my nephew who is a California Highway Patrol sergeant in Needles. If you pause the video at 20:09 and every few seconds you get the trucking company name and DOT numbers. These guys hold commercial license and have no business driving like that. You all could have been killed! Sorry but I'm pissed!!
thanks
Frame 12:27 shows the vehicle DOT pretty well.
Sorry was it Nevada Price´s ??
I'm glad I found your channel , you do some awesome travel videos , I've been watching your summer 2019 vacation , I'm jealous hahahahah , I am 67 RETIRED in Tucson , LOVE the WEST , lived in Denver for some years TOO COLD , TOO EXPENSIVE , BUT I DO suggest you drive from Denver up through Estes Park into the Rocky mountain national Park
i will visit colorado again... it was a great state
👋😊
🙋Hello Russ! A beautiful start to a beautiful day! I wonder if their employer watches RVerTV? 🤦 Just senseless! We saw it all! Please be careful out there.
What is the Gasol / Petrol Prices in Nevada and in California ?? I´m just interested since our Petrol in Sweden in this moment reaching about 18 SEK à Liter today ???
Nevada around $3 a gallon, depending on where you are. $2.89 - $3.05
Rule #1 in the West is to never ever buy fuel in California if you can possibly avoid it. The prices in Calif. are outrageous by western U.S. standards.
I didn't know the Bureau of land management had camp grounds
👍👍👍👍
Don’t forget Christmas tree pass.
Ha Russ. I like your channel especially going through small towns. When you going to make a video in the east like ohio.
hoping for a east coast trip next summer
Have you ever visited the world's largest Chevron
Is this the Price of Petrol/Gasolin in Arizona 3,09 a Gallon ????
Railroad terrorism is a serious threat that needs to receive more attention.
OMG that driver will get people killed. Some friends just had a motorcycle plow into the front of their car. He was passing other cars and didn't get back to his side in time. It was sadly a Darwin Award, the motorcyclist was killed instantly. My friends are having nightmares, even though they weren't at fault.
But that fool of a trucker will get the people he hits killed because he's so much bigger. I drive a Prius, I know who would lose in that collision. Very, very scary.
The desert area is gorgeous, but I usually wait for winter/spring when the weather is cooler.
Drive safe over there.
Good thing only gas pedal stuff not steering wheel on truck transport invisible cars
Big Wave Russ....Take care when driving Russ...We have had lots of hokey pokey too going on....We just must keep moving forward..we have to...we have no choice in this matter.....Every time we turn around there is another plane crash, another car crash, another fire, another knifing, but we must move on ahead. I don't think anyone knows for sure of what's going on, but we must move on forward for the sake of our young all over the place....Be safe out there Russ...Be safe...Colin and I are watching. If you ever feel unsafe go to the police Russ...We have had to, other people even in our government right now are needing security....What the heck eh? It is really confusing...but don't give up faith in others Russ...We are all moving ahead step by step, breath by breath, on step at a time...A big hug Russ...Never say stop...keep on trucking....CDHx2
hi. morning
US 95 was where Sam Kinison died. He'd been clean and sober for a while and just got married. Had a show in Laughlin, so headed there. Saw the pickup coming and slowed to 15 mph, they say, but the truck with some teens just plowed into him. Beer cans in the truck. A lousy way to die. Maybe it's out of our control. There's an old joke: "When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep - not screaming, like the passengers in his car."
Is ohio in the trip.
Have you run into any KOA Campgrounds in your travels ?
Have come across some spectacular wrecks on Rice RD.
Ehrenberg Rd is much safer.
cool vid again:) cant wait till global warming lets me have palm trees here in Alaska :):)
