Yea no. The furthest I will drive in my car is from VA to Missouri, anything past Saint Lewis like, the west side of Texas up to kanas, yall can have. I’ve driven to st Lewis and it’s not it. From NYC to CA is like way over do cause it’s like the irritation of not being their yet will make me mad.

When I'm at work and the rain is pouring(in Holland, I always have some scenery to dream away on one of my computer screens. Usually some beachcam of a nice sunny place, but this will do nicely as well!
I hope to visit the states myself one day

Great fun to watch, and to follow the route. Why did you take I-25 north to US_34 East to I-76 instead of just staying on I-76 Traffic out of Denver The I-74, 70, 79, 68, 70, 81 was a nice choice, better than boring Ohio Turnpike.

Impresionante como os primeiros 15 minutos desse video parece muito com GTA V, a rockstar conseguiu passar a vida real pra dentro do jogo tao bem, mesmo o gta v tendo 10 anos, ainda se parece bastante, imagina como sera no GTA VI

I sometimes daydream about doing a timelapse bicycle journey video from Cologne, Germany to Kabul, Afghanistan. most likely, I will do this as a 3D animation based on ASTER terrain and OpenStreetMap road and buildings data!
reply

My favorite things to do is listen to music in the background with YOU driving and watching it at 0. 25 speed and watch the visual illusion of the white striped lane go BACKWARDS! TIME GOING BACKWARDS.
reply

Very nice video! My Dad drove from coast to coast about five times, so I decided to stumble upon this video to get an idea of such an experience! Truly enjoyable with such diverse scenery!
reply

Pro driving in Needles! Great vid. Almost meditative. I had this on during a tough day at work on one of my other monitors. Made me feel like I was working faster and getting somewhere.

Nice road trip. I rode a good part of in 1976 to 1978 on Schwinn Continental 10 speed bicycle. The thing was so heavy. All it needed was a Howitzer and it would have been a Tank. :)
reply

The whole series seems to be cut & paste and not a single journey. How come in Nebraksa the fellow is on 21st Aug 2017 and the moment enters into Iowa the date becomes 17th Aug 2017!

46: 30 - "Interstate Love Affair" by Night Ranger in my phones. awesome! I also recommend "Highway Isolation" by Streetheart.
1: 49: 25 - "Drive" by The Cars - perfect!

reply

This video would have been amazing with either some nice music or even better actually hearing the roads, wind and just life so damn quiet but New York is the best
reply

Loved the i270 side loop in Columbus, Ohio. I make that drive everyday from Hilliard to Westerville. You do a Great job driving! Very safe.
reply

i cant even believe myself watching this video for hours. and i am not even from USA. (am from Malaysia) Thanks for sharing anyway.
reply

Have you heard the government shutdown is happening on Saturday midnight if Congress doesn't pass the funding bill Will this affect you
reply

I love the parts where you drove on the "Blue Highways" -- i. e. the back roads. To be honest, the interstate footage was kinda dull.
reply

I did almost the same drive in 1975. I started in Sunnyvale and ended in Hackensack NJ. I was returning home from military service.
reply

Seems absolutely nuts to do this length of journey in such a short period.
You're probably missing out on a great deal.

reply

What's your average speed I'm new to America and I wanna experience this. I believe there are varied climatic conditions
reply

This video is very good. I will take it to the domestic website and add a background music to carry it.

Every person who leaves California, has to feel like they are escaping a nitemarish hell on earth.
reply

Uhmmm. this maybe a dumb question but why did you guys not build a railway that connects them
reply

It's a way better trip if you go through the south. Nothing to see at all on that route.
reply

In China you can take a train from Guangzhou to Lhasa, which take 3 days to cover 5072km
reply

when the people think it would be fantastic just see it and realize its soo boring: D
reply

Sorry, you don't make this video available to enjoy to us unhearing! NO Captions
reply

I always wanted to make that drive. Thanks for helping me scratch it off my bucket list.
reply

I don't get the rules of your roads, you can pass another vehicle on either side
reply

We needed a different tune for each state. Then this video would of been sweet as a nut.
