Hey thanks buddy. I've been waiting a long LONG time for this. Haha How long will Cola Warrior be going on? I'm leaving the 20th but I have to work or they won't give me my final check.
I'm gonna leave here around 11 and get as much driving out of the way as I possibly can to hopefully get there early Sunday.
And what's a Rizzo ammo tax?

Congratulations! Finally doin it, huh?
Mar 20th is Cola Warrior west, you might take a little detour through Vegas and say hello!
I really dont have much to tell you that Im sure you dont already know. Tucson is a little liberal for by Arizona standards, but you wont notice it coming from here. Double check any neighborhoods you plan on moving into. Theres lots to see all around, if you miss trees, you can venture up to Prescott or Flagstaff- it wont be like home, but you will get some greenery. Drop into the Arizona Hometown forum, there are seriously some really great guys over there. Dont forget to pay the Rizzo ammo tax!
Good luck, and please, if you have any questions- ask.

Go introduce yourself in the AZHTF and youll find out quick!
Theres only 2 routes you should consider:
Through Nevada; Lots of desolate, open spaces,(no gas or services for 100 miles or more sometimes) but quickest. Take I5 to Mt. Shasta, Then head east along the 89, 44, and 395 to Reno. Then the I80 to Hwy95 all the way to Las Vegas. Then Hwy 93 (right past the location of Cola Warrior) through Kingman and Wickenberg to Phoenix. Skirt Phoenix on the 303 south, then take I10 into Tucson.
Or through, California. Lots of places to stop, with only a few desolate ares between Barstow and Havasu, Havasu and Phoenix. Take the I5 south through Sacramento to Stockton. Jump east to head South on Hwy 99 in Stockton. Follow the 99 all the way to Bakersfield Where you take Hwy 58 east to Barstow, Where you take the I40 east past Needles, CA.
This is very important: Follow the Interstate 40 UNTIL YOU ARE IN ARIZONA, THEN take Hwy 95 south through Lake Havasu City.
You will see signs for California Hwy 95 after Needles, but you must use the Arizona turn off to go through Lake Havasu City or you will end up taking a 150 mile detour around the lake with no gas stops. Anyway, from Lake Havasu, you continue south on Hwy 95 to the junction with I10, and take I10 east the rest of the way to Tuscon.
Its a long ass trip. Check your spares, fuel up often, and carry water. From Tahacapi through Needles has a weird vibe, alot of weird stuff in that corner of Southern California. Its my favorite part of the drive.
