when i did it last summer with the gf it took us 9 weeks from the virginia coast to san francisco and then another 3 weeks to go down the coast to LA (but we took our time on the cali coast) and yes we took backroads except for in missouri where the sherriff told us to take the highway as it was the only way

My friend and his mom did this a couple years back from east to west. He was 14 or 15 at the time.

my mom wants to do this when she retires. id like to drive across the country and hit all the swimming holes along the way. Start in my home town, jump in the atlantic. Drive across the country, jump in the pacific!!! I've never swam in the pacific before. That's a life goal for me.

Yeah well, that's the Nor Cal coast for ya, but inland its like 104 , freezing you ass off at the beach beats 104 any day.
