Highway 1CA (coast highway)
I have a 33ft fifth. I was thinking of driving down CA1 from Monterey thru Big Sur and on to Santa Barbara. Is this possible

Possible, yes. Don't Do It!!!
You will be on the wrong side...drop off cliff side, with little or no shoulder a flimsy guardrail and a vertical drop into the ocean. There are very tight curves...like you can check your own tail-lights. The road is well traveled so you will have cars speeding toward you, light trucks coming at you, and you will probably have a line of cars angrily following you.
It is a beautiful drive. Basecamp in Carmel or Morro Bay and take a day drive in the tow vehicle to enjoy the sights and pull outs. But this is the one area of PCH-1 that I would not drive in an RV. I've done it twice, 10 years apart, going North. Guess my fading memory got the best of me.
