Today, Sunday before Labor Day, we braved the crowds and the traffic and drove the Pacific Coast Highway (1) from Monterey CA down to about 10 miles south of Big Sur. We were in a convertible--which is the best way to do the PCH--but were scouting the highway for future RV travels in our 2016 Winnebago ERA 70X. Among the hundreds of cars we passed on the side of the road or going the other way, we noted about 20 other convertibles, 4 Class B Sprinters, 7 Class C (brave souls), of which 3 were rentals, and Zero (0) Class A Motorhomes. So, Class A owners, is the PCH just too intense a drive for a Class A? It is nice, narrow and curvy and ascending and descending, is that too much for a Class A? Or are Class A owners smart enough to know to stay off the PCH during the height of Labor Day Weekend?
I've done it with my Class A with a toad without problem. However, I don't think I'd have gone over there in any kind of vehicle on labor day weekend. I went way inland over to Lone Pine myself and there were no crowds there.
