If you find yourself in the Temecula area and are tempted to take Highway 74 (known locally as the Ortega Highway) over to Lake Forest, DON'T in an RV. You're much better off to stay on 8 until you hit 5 to get to Lake Forest. There's nothing to see on a trip as short as yours in the Salton Sea area. And watch the wind in the desert areas. When we came from Temecula to Houston (and beyond) earlier this year, it was ferocious. (And, as someone else suggested, consider avoiding 10 in Texas as much as you can. Trucks doing 80mph is crazy!)
