Or you could go further south and take 129 (if I am remembering correctly) and bypass the mess that is 17 and San Jose completely, going over the pass on 152.
X2. 152 brings you out just short of (south of) Santa Nella. It is an easy drive, going east you can take the 33 north and it come out a few miles closer to Santa Nella. Santa Nella is one of the last two Split Pea Soup Anderson's I know of, the other being at Buellton. Good place to stop, RV parking in back and nice restrooms and people working there. Good leg stretching time coming from Santa Cruz. Casa de Fruita is also a nice stop and they used to have a fruit stand there with good fruit and so-so prices.
