SF Bay Area to Bridgeport, CA

Pulling 24'TT from East Bay to Bridgeport. Several options exist including:
1. 120 East through Yosemite to 395
2. Hwy 4 to Markleville to 89 (Monitor Pass) to 395
3. 50 to 89 to 395
4. 108 to 395 (Sonora Pass)

I was advised to stay off the 120 route because of the Priest Grade.
Also advised to stay off the Sonora Pass, 108 to 395

I believe this is a fairly traveled RV route and appreciate any advice. I am OK with some Mountain Driving to a point, but am certainly willing to drive a bit further if necessary.

    This road is more suited to motorcycle traffic then RV's. It is very steep, narrow and windy between Lake Alpine and about 10 miles south of Markleeville. I would go SR 88 and then US 395. Both SR 88 and US 395 are very doable in any RV.
