Not applicable
looking for road condition for hwy50 going across nevada back to Mo thru Utah and Colorado (70)
Anyone know what this road is like since I haven't been on it. Driving a 34 Winnebago Sightseer. I could go 80, but have chosen 50 for the adventure, any advice or comment, thanks

Totally agree! Been going to Moab for 10+ years and took 80 home once. Only once.

That was my thought too. If your vehicle should have troubles, you could be in a serious situation, due to extreme temps. It's a great drive...I have done east to west several times, but never in summer.

Anyone get car sick in your group? They'll probably need medication in few area's. Just got done driving 50 less than 3 weeks ago but ours was in our Escape. We encountered mostly rain. It was a experience and will do it again. We have a Sprint and for the most part had a signal. I would stop at every gas station unless you have 400+ range. Oh and I'd stop and enjoy the scenery.. unfortunately we didn't have time.

Hwy 50 is OK for RVs. Beware that cellphone signal may be spotty, and make sure you have plenty of fuel before you get going. It's pretty desolate...not much to see
