The Mother Road. The Main Street of America. No matter what nickname it goes by, Route 66 is by far the most famous roadway in America. We're kicking off a new series where we'll be traveling the entire length of Route 66 while exploring some of the historic sites along the way. Enjoy! This one's going to be fun!

So excited for a light-hearted series. Rode in the back of a ‘63Fairlane-no air conditioning unless you count Dad’s 445 cooling system ( roll down all 4 windows and get going over 45 mph ). Don’t forget that you don’t always need to stop at a diner-you can always get some sliced bread, bolonga, and cheese and stop at a roadside table along the way.

My parents took us to California on Route 66 in a 1951 Hudson with a canvas water bag hanging on the front end for the hot states. Still have some pictures but remember stopping in many small towns along the way and looking for motels with swimming poos. A great time to remember, but due to the many small towns, it took a long time to get to there.

Hi JD really looking forward to your take on this journey on Route 66 after watchng Jacob the Carpetbagger and Adam the Woo's trip a few years back now. Really liking the humour you throw into a more light hearted subject video. Having had the privilige a few times to stand in the American Cemetary on the cliffs above Omaha Beach, I cannot help but think about how many of those heroes came from some of the towns you will be traversing on this trip. Just goes to prove how history is never far from our daily lives and travels. Safe travels to you from the UK.

In 1964 my Step-Father, who was in the Air Force, received orders to Japan. We left from Prince George’s County, Maryland and picked up Route 66 in Missouri, I think, and took it all the way to California! We were in a 1963 Chevrolet Station wagon, with no air condition, of course! What a trip and quite the adventure for a 15 year old!!! Going across the South and the western desert, with all windows down was very uncomfortable, as I remember. Looking back to that time and knowing I got to travel Route 66 when it was great, is a solid memory. I have seen it since but it wasn’t the same. I hope you have a great trip!
