I was looking up I-8 to show a friend the straight path to San Diego from Casa Grande since I used to live there. This is so wild, I would have never expected a video like this to exist.

Nice mix of terrain, river basin, hills, desert, sand dunes, miles of upland huge boulders, views into san San Diego

Thank you I hafta drive from Casa Gande to San Diego and your video is showing me what to expect in the drive so I can better familiarize myself with what's to come

That's so weird that I-8 past the In-Ko-Pah Gorge and Devil's Canyon leans on the Imperial-San Diego County Line!

another 'Phoenix bypass' (assuming going to LA) would be to take I-8 all the way to El Centro, Ca, then take Ca-86 (a good four lane divided highway) north (on west side of Salton Sea) and will rendezvous with I-10 in Indio, Ca. Advantage here is that I-8 has a small fraction of the traffic that I-10 does, and by the time 86 runs into I-10, I-10 is six lanes. Also I-10 climbs a summit and trucks can bog down the freeway going up the hill.

25:19 Alpine CA unexpected snowfall one springtime drive through there. But on a clear day you can see the ocean in the distance.

In California's Imperial Valley, I-8 goes through sand dunes.

Thanks for making this! Will be driving out to CA from FL this summer. Usually take I10 all the way. Always wondered what I8 was like. Now I know! :)

Awesome video! Pretty different than the 2012 ride along video. Very amazing! 😎

Thank you for reminding me of the training life of one year in San Diego.

States and Time Zones (Time zone info below. The timestamp is Pacific Daylight Time I think, but the local time is Pacific Standard Time, so the clock on the timestamp did not change an hour back on the first Sunday of November 2015 which ended DST. Then it is the same time as Mountain Standard Time.) 0:14 Arizona begins departing at 8:19am MST I think. 13:49 Entering California and Pacific Time Zone, Leaving Arizona and Arizona Time Zone (Changes 1 hour behind from 10:38am MST to 9:38am PST I think. It does have a time zone change in the winter and in the summer it doesn't) Arrival time in San Diego, CA is at 12:02pm PST I think.

15:24 USA-Mexico border in the distance!

13:37 - 13:46 in Yuma, Arizona looks kind of like Interstate 8 in El Centro, California.

This lamb also loves this video and its homage to the 2012 video. Fun fact, Yuma Arizona has the largest unemployment rate in the country.

mellow music..

You drive right by my neighborhood. Right off the Severin exit in La Mesa

Also you got LUCKY with the line at the immigration checkpoint. You snuck ahead of tons of other vehicles.

mna, that's some serious country out there...how did our forefathers ever cross it by horse and buggy

I just drove this last week, So, just before California 79 interchange, I noticed something flat and smoky blue on the horizon. Is that the Pacific Ocean visible from that far inland? I noticed it on this video too, about 24:00 in.

Alternative Title: "The I-8 Westbound Clinched".

My favorite song is "Anyway (Steve Porter Mix)” by Amber.

lol!! You know you've entered San Diego's East County of El Cajon/Alpine/ Los Coches when the bird feces hits your windshield.

What is that romantic house track in the beginning?

23:58 why is there an int’l border patrol in CA when going through CA?

Go Go Super Babyz!

I See A Song (music) Eric Carle

I used to live in the Civilized San Diego are! But very unfortunately I ended up in the damned Barbarian, 1870's, Sh@thole, Loser City Tucson area because of the 1990's military base closures & realignments that hit & hurt CA, PA,NJ,NY,CO,WA,FL,TX,IL,IN,RI,ME between 1993 & 1999. I'm always glad to make it home to the Civilized San Diego area. I'm selling everything I own that I don't need & don't want and when that's all done, I will be returning home to the Philippines my second country via the Civilized San Diego area & live out my life in the Philippines where my heart is.

At 20:53, why aren't the wind turbines spinning?

Henderson NV To Culver City CA

LOL bird poop or bird turd 💩 24:33

Hi

Do you have any trips of the south east to GA, SC, NC?

We camp at glamis sand dunes

Yuma is not yummy. Great video.

The selection of the music being played in the video of I-8 from Casa Grande,AZ to Civilized San Diego is a whole lot better than the music selection going East on I-8 from Civilized San Diego to Casa Grande, AZ which is a lot better than Ugly,Backward,Barbarin,Anti-Progress,Anti-Jobs,Anti-Business,Sh#thole, Loser City Tucson,AZ which is the Pothole Capital of North America which Philadelphia was glad they lost that title.
