Oakland, Ca. to Quartzsite, Az.

[rvgrammady]

I am planning on leaving Oakland Ca. across from San Francisco.
and going to Quartzsite Az. On Mon. Jan 13th.
I have a 35' Class A and Tow a car.

I was planning on going 99 to Visalia, then 58 to Spotlight 29 Casino by Indio, then I-10 on to Q.

Brother in Visalia has a bad cold, so now that stop is out. So re-thinking I might go I-5, but where to stop.. don't think I want to
go all the way to Indio in one day 491 miles. 350-375 most 400 miles per day is about it.

Now I'm confused & need some suggestions? So any route suggestions, stops, RV parks etc. I need a pull thru also, gas, and
am only two short trip into towing.. so I'm a rookie.

Moderator don't know if I need to break this in to two posts, one here and the other in RV Parks... not sure how the forum works.

Thanks in advance for all the great advice I'm gonna get...

580,5,46, 99, 58 to Orange Grove RV Park just east of Bakersfield. Nice park and about 300 miles. Many routes to Q from there but one is 395, 210 and 10, about 350 miles.

There was an earlier thread that said take 7th Standard Rd off of 5 into Bakersfield and continue on 58. Apparently it's been upgraded. I'm planning on trying it in the future.

Have stayed at the Walmart on Rosedale in Bakersfield many times for the night. Easy gas is the Loves truck stop in Tehachapi.

Bakersfield might be a good stop.. or Barstow at 405mi has Peggy's diner. Free camping.
