Craig,
I-5 is pretty boring. A run up the coast or up the Sierras would be far more entertaining!
But if you are going to take I-5, we live in Medford, OR. I certainly would not consider us Ace Mechanics, but we do manage to keep our cars running with startling regularity!~
What we can't fix ourselves, we know who is able and where to buy parts. I'll PM you our cell #.
