Howdy! I just finished my service in the US Marine Corps and am celebrating by taking a 1971 Winnebago Brave across the country. I need a bit of advice on a route, however.
Here is a pic of me and my crew: http://goo.gl/sb6gn
Facts on vehicle:
Rebuilt 1976 Ford 300 Straight Six Engine
Rebuilt C6 Transmission
9MPG Hwy
55 MPH top speed
No Cab A/C
Currently I am stranded at a transmission shop in Pigeon Forge, TN. Should be on the road in a couple of days. I need to make it to Sacramento, but I'm worried that climbing into the Seirras might be too treacherous for my Winnie. Is there a way anyone knows of to get to Northern CA on flatter terrain (maybe go north?) without driving a lot of extra miles?
Thanks so much!
