We live in AZ. We usually just go to California for a few days during the summer for our family vacations. Was thinking of driving up to San Francisco from LA since I have never been to SF. From there we would drive over to the Reno/Tahoe area, then back down through Las Vegas on the way home. Every drive between each major city looked "do-able" in 5 or 6 hours. The only stretch that looked brutal was the one between Reno and Vegas.
Does anyone remember if this is just a 2 lane highway? Thanks guys.

Made the drive in 2005 to visit my brother who was visiting Reno. Not very scenic, couple nice spots, but brutally long drive.
Also, there are 2 "dips" in the road that act like an optical illusion where they can hide an oncoming car. We almost found out the hard way while trying to pass a Wal-Mart semi.
Wouldn't do that drive ever again if I had a choice.

I drive this route quite often as recently as last October. I have no problem with it whatsoever. I really can't understand what's so awful about it. 450 miles and 7 hours at the most. Some friends and I drove from Portland to tijuana stopping only for gas so this one seems like a side trip to me !
