Best route to Bridgeport from Stockton Ca

We are pulling a 34 ft 5th wheel to Bridgeport Ca from Stockton. What is the best route? I don’t want to do 108 but what about 120 or 50? I have plenty of experience towing and a new Ford diesel. Loaded trailer is right at 14,000 on truck scales

Thanks for your input
  • Either of the two would work. Carson Pass on 88 is a pretty good climb. When I lived in Gilroy, we always did the 88 route as it was a much more pleasant and scenic drive.
  • Hwy 88 to Gardnerville, NV where you can refill your fuel tank and reload your refrigerator if necessary; then down to Bridgeport ( where fuel ain’t cheap! )...
