Drivelapse video of Interstate 8 starting just west of El Centrol, in Imperial Valley, California and heading westerly up In-Ko-Pah Grade into the mountains through Pine Valley and Alpine, beyond the Inland Border Check Point before descending into the San Diego Metro area and heading westerly beyond Interstate 5 to the western terminus of the freeway at the shore of the Pacific Ocean

    Check out that 1975-1979 Chevrolet Nova at 17:12! Not only does it still run, it looks like it just came out of the showroom! In the Chicago area (where I'm originally from), it would have been a rustbucket over 30 years ago. It's amazing how long cars can last when they aren't exposed to copious amounts of road salt every winter.

    Great video! Loved the contrast between the interior and the coastal area near San Diego. The landscape reminds me so much of my country - Spain. Some placenames are also kind of fun for a Spanish speaker, like the sign at 17:00 El Cajón 5 / La Mesa 8 (The drawer 5 / The table 8) ... must be quite a big house if those two things are 3 miles apart!

    For truckers, Greyhound busses, and all other vehicles headed east (WELL east) out of LA on I-10, at the town of Indio, take CA-86 divided road all the way almost like a freeway, SOUTH to El Centro (some traffic lights in Brawley), then take I-8 EAST until it ends and at I-10 in Casa Grande, Az, then get back on I-10 and continue east thru Tucson, New Mexico, and into Texas. This serves as another "Phoenix Bypass" and this route has less than a third of the traffic that I-10 has, moreover just out of Indio, I-10 has a long grade (Chiriaco Summit) that slows traffic by trucks moving into left lane. I-8 is flat for the remainder of the drive from El Centro to Casa Grande, Az (except for one small hill about 15 miles east of Yuma, Az).

    A message to future generations: Never let this channel die. Anyways, nice road trip as always, especially for your 1st video on the Interstate 8

    Great drive! Have you heard the longest suspension bridge was recently opened to traffic in Turkey on March 18, 2022? It's 1915 Çanakkale Bridge and it has a span length of 2,023 meters, surpassing Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Japan by 32 meters which is 1,991 meters.

    I like the scenery of I-8 through southwestern Imperial County, CA and southeastern San Diego County, CA.

    My grandmother was raised in nearby El Punundo but she died in San Jubunjo.

    I was snowboarding at Mt High on this day. By the end of the week things got interesting.
