I was checking google maps and found that the journey is around 10 hours. I wasn't expecting that. The route seemed a bit circuitous to me as it went thru bakersfield, just about 100 miles away from LA!

My plan was SF-->>Vegas-->>LA

But if we are swinging so close to LA isn't it better to go there first. I don't have to return, just fly to NY so doesn't matter where the journey ends.

But please, does anyone know a faster & shorter route from SF to Vegas? How much time would it take?

Thanks for all your help.
