Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
Has anyone traveled up the California 101 from Point Mugu to Santa Barbara in a 40' fifth wheel? We're planning this for next week and are wondering if the roads will be problematic. I have traveled it before but in a car, the most I noticed was traffic can get slow on the 2 lane roads so our size and speed may other drivers irritate. From there I would like to take the 1 up from there to Monterey put that may be pushing it, the 101 will be better for marital harmony :)
Hiway 101- Not a problem. We drive it every year, pick it up east of Ventura and head north for the summer. Lots of traffic, but moves pretty smoothly. You did say 101; are you maybe asking about Ca 1?

As you leave Pt Mugu area you will head north on HWY 1. It's a nice wide road until you enter Oxnard. You can choose to stay on HWY 1 (Rice Rd.) a wide two to 4 lane road through a mostly commercial area and reach HWY 101.
Or veer left and head north on Oxnard Bl. It is 4 lanes but a little tighter as it goes through downtown area of Oxnard. I've done both with a 38ft 5th wheel in tow. No problem; just take your time.
Once you get on HWY 101 it's a 2 to 6 lane freeway all of the way through Santa Barbara. No problem except during rush hours, you will hit stop and go traffic. Rush hours are typically M-F from 6am to 9:30am and from 2pm to 6pm with some delays during lunchtime.
