Where in AZ to where in AR
Every year from 2003 - 2020,
I drive from San Diego to Connecticut & back in Mid July & late August
In the bed, I carry a good plastic Ice Cooler, it holds 30 cans of coors & 20 pounds of ice.
In the cab i have another cooler with plastic bottles of spring water.
I leave San Diego at 8 AM & take Interstate 8 into Yuma.
In Yuma i gas up, both my fuel tank & a Jerry can. i leave Yuma at 11 AM.
My next stop is just a leg stretcher & i grab some coffee & top off with fuel, where Interstate 8 ends & i catch Interstate 10 at Casa Grande or Eloy
My next leg stretcher is either in Wilcox Az or Lordsburg N.M., i top off fuel & grab something to eat.
Then i drive all the way to El Paso & depending the weather & traffic, i like to go to most of the way through El Paso, either on I-10 or North 375 around El Paso.
I find a motel by 10 PM
At 9 AM, i fuel up & i am back on the I-10 & I-20, i only drive to the town of Sweetwater Texas, just east of Abilene, where i go to sleep after only 7 hours of driving
The next day i drive into at Least Texarkana Ar
I stop to stretch my old legs at Truck Stops & i fuel up at every stop, even if it will only take 15 + gallons
Try to avoid Tucson during rush hour, they don't know how to drive
