We've heard some horror stories about some sections of 101 with RVs but aren't sure where those spots are. We'll be pulling a 30ft. TT with a GMC Sierra 2500HD.
Any words of advice for driving that route?

The driving was a bit twisty and turny and hilly in the Napa area but basically easy. The views coming north were outstanding!

In our many years of towing, we've run into a few roads that we wished we had checked out ahead of time. Sounds like our ride down the Oregon coast should be one more to add to our pleasant travel memories.

Drive slow and take it easy,you'll find that you're average speed will be around 45mph for the trip. Relax and enjoy it.

Currently in Newport OR. Started on 101 in Olympia and took 101 north to, and around the Olympic Peninsula, through Ilwaco WA and on south thru' OR to this point. Road is in great condition so far. Most of the "broken pavement" has been repaired. You will have no problems, other than slow driving and lots of traffic - especially on weekend with the current temps on the east side of the Coast Ranges in or close to triple digits driving residents to the coast for the cooler temps.
Good driving and enjoy a great road!

It follows the ocean... it has cliffs and it has low spots.
The views are worth it.
Here's a way to keep up with the construction... and there will always be construction. Just take it slow. You can't hurry on this road.

Just watch the speed limits in the many small towns. There's a lot of foot traffic, bicycles, pedestrians, logging trucks, and vehicles. But a very beautiful trip. Enjoy.
