New York to California - best route
Hi all - my husband and I and our 2 dogs will be going to CA soon. We would like to take the most direct and "fastest" route going out and then we'll take longer and see some sites on the way back. ...

I take 80 all the way whenever I return to NY. The trip usually takes me 5 days.
I've considered 70 but I'm unfamiliar with the weather patterns and prefer to avoid tornadoes and other "exciting" weather.
Thanks! Yes we did take 80 all the way out and really had no problems except for the usual construction all over. Took us 5 days also. Went up to Montana and through Yellowstone on the way back and then took 90 to Il and back to 80. Hit so much traffic in Chicago - definitely did not time that right!
