[chiparoo222]

Thanks for the pleasure ! ! ! -- REALLY Good ! ! !

[BungalowHollywood]

Awsome video! If you need a cheap place to stay while visiting Hollywood, come check out the hostel Banana Bungalow!

[fluffydolly]

northern cali is awesome ....redwood national forest is the real deal....101 rocks!!!!

[SomethingNewNow]

MIX...

[attitudemaniac]

.. dude this is full of BS..

[welcomegohome]

ahhh yes... california, the land of fruits and nuts.

[UndergorundGlacius]

You suck next time dont talk at all when u do a video your voice is boring

[Seraku15]

all i can say is nice jaguar.

[eprincess5]

o ya it is like 2 hours away from the ocean so i hate that california is stereotypes on a small portion of the state! i luv san fran though (awsum chocolate!) and san diego is kinda chilly (not really i just like it really hot) and la is really smogy (i live 8 hours away from disney land, i havnt been in like 11 years!) up north are some beautiful sights (like sundial bridge in redding!) and lake tahoe is by far the most beautiful thing in cali i LUV it so if u hav a chance keep tahoe blue!! ;)

[eprincess5]

i live in california and not everywhere in the state is on the coast i live 15 mins south of sacrament the unknown capital of california in a small city called elk grove. i love it in cali cuz of the amazing weather

[LookAtTheWookie]

Did you get a chance to run over any illegal Mexicans on your drive?

That would have made the trip better

[ryanshaunkelly]

5 dancing Israelis arrested on 911 in NYC demand the US start & fight more wars for Israel. ~would have been too darn expensive to remove all that asbestos from the twin towers~ Modern day warrior Mean mean stride Todays Tom Sawyer Mean mean pride Though his mind is not for rent Dont put him down as arrogant His reserve a quiet defense Riding out the days events River What you say about his company Is what you say about society Catch the mist catch the myth Catch the mystery catch the drift

hey i just got back from the mall, looking for a date

[jib28444]

come to PR we'll go to Chilli's then the movies. :)

[SuperKixxx]

when did you go and have such low traffic? last time I was there it was a cluster. Oh, and I turned of the volume after a while of that harmonica, does anybody actually like that?

[DNofs13]

So there is this new channel called PrankedUpon that this guy i know put up. I finally convinced him to make a channel. He bet me a fairly large sum of money that he will not get 100 subscribers by the end of this year. I subscribed now i need others to help out my cause and make this guy pay $ to me...his channel is called PrankedUpon

[owlgulch]

This reminds me of my epic trip to San

Fransisco during with my trusty 1958 Karman Gia in the 70's. Thanks for posting your trip.

[MoscowFighter]

I had a road trip 2 months ago from NY to Calif! I was avoiding the Interstate 1 because the earthquake will cause disaster--rockslide, bridge collapse or road destruction that can throw you into the Pacific. This is the reason I used the I-5 N to go to the SF Bay Area from the LA County!

[SuperKixxx]

well, you missed great scenery, but you saved several hours, 1 gets pretty jammed.

[WisdomVendor]

anyone who hasn't seen thunderfoot's videos of his last cross country trip is cheating themselves.

this vid sucks really bad by comparison.

[thecauseandfx]

harmonica, dumbass.

[Rod44]

Okay camera work - pretty standard shots. Stilted amateurish narration. Harmonica at the end was okay for a moment - then it became, "Please make it stop!"

[jdweekley]

Hah! Apple Loops from Soundtrack Pro. Very tacky. Once again, Lonely Planet demonstrates its usefulness in where NOT to go, what NOT to do and how to avoid people who think it's cool to be a tourist.

[jdweekley]

BTW, it's my hometown and I really can live without people who enjoy renting a car and driving around for fun. It's completely unbearable.

[GLITCHERdotNET]

Cool video until the guy starts playing the music. REALLLLY ANNOYING!! It was all screechy and high pitched.

[handy4ever]

this video is soo lame....being from Big Sur i'll be the first to say you're a typical tourist kook.... get the Fu%$ out of here.

[blummedia]

I was wondering how many Big Sur vids there'd be. If you sit on the Old Coast Road and watch cars pass on Bixby Creek Bridge, you'll see hundreds of Mustang convertible rental cars going by.

Maybe I should do a vid on Monterey since I live here?

[Zitronekopf]

Dude, it's a video about a road trip. Of course he's going to look like a tourist; lonelyplanet is a series of travel guides.

[Socoolscienceshow]

I would enter but I know enough about Hollywood to know it doesnt matter about my skills as a film makter, its all about sex appeal, profitablity & kissing ass.

Sorry but I woudl rather have a small productin & treat everyone like a human being then eat sausage sandwhiches & chase it with licking the icying off of someones cake hole.

Sorry but I really think everyone should be treated like a human being.

[Polarman1]

I see alot of Journey contest videos are over 3 minutes, the girl promoting it says keep it under 3, lol!

[Fahasha]

Try doing same on the Atlantic coast in maine New England Sply in FALL heaven

[Fendergrunge]

Nice camera work/videography.

[NiteAngel]

corny music, crappy video clips distracting logo and the good clips are to short.

[MakkailAria]

Gonna have to agree with the last poster. Video was okay, narration made me want to stab my eyes out. Unprofessional, annoying, and juvenile. Convertible 2005-2009 mustangs are pretty, but a dime a dozen these days. You don't have a Lambo, you don't have a Ferrari, you are putting waaay too much emphasis on your car than on the actual scenery. Your car is not that cool. This is like me getting in my scion and saying "IMAGINE... driving through cali in... a SCION. Oooo."

Less surfer talk.

[KeukaRyder]

You're commentary actually made me want to puke while looking at the Pacific Coast Highway and the natural

beauty surrounding it. Un-freaking-believable! I'd probably want to shoot myself if you were doing a road trip through,say, Newark NJ.

No offense.

[monkeyjr12345]

subscribe me,rate me,comment me please.

=]

[tomofnorthcal]

Been there too and its tres bien.

[veratai707]

ha, that was actually pretty cool

[veratai707]

oh yeah?...oh man.

[nubisdubis]

i been there!!

[MonaxLisaxx]

heaven.

[ovatharim]

certainly felt like i was experiencing cali, i think i might prefer less of the narrating idea and more talking to the camera, but all in all, just to be critical,

I really liked this video!

[Bzuzarte]

Thanks, I've used to live there, been everywhere you did including staying at that river inn with the chairs in the stream.. Thanks for the memories and self expression! Oh California!

[PandaJerkS]

wow such a fag omg

[mooninsantacruz]

Too bad such a beautiful stretch of scenery is ruined by seeing it juxtaposed against a total idiot and his moronic antics.

[ZAYZIGGIEi]

LATTIBEAUDIERE

[Harick]

I wanna punch this guy, dang californian

[JordanPar]

cool

[creten69]

and then imagine these dudes doing the 49er on each other

[Lamppostshines]

it was pretty cool but the music in the last minute or so was realllly pitched and kind of annoying. :( otherwise, everything was great

[poeticinjustice13]

Absolutely love it- I miss it as a California native.

[tengotweety]

try it without talking.

[ArmadaRanger]

. . .

[benlandcan]

im sorry guys but this video is terrible. this guy has no taste. do you know how many ford mustangs i see everyday?

[amrcngyrl]

if you're from california, you don't call it CALI. and you're obviously from out of state if you rent a FORD mustang.

[teeembeee]

So where does he say he is from California? And what does that matter anyway?

[aokiwan]

butt crack @ 2:23

[AbbeyNormal]

I was raised in Monterey and really miss it. I'm living in Arizona right now and I really want to go back to the coast.

[st4nd4u]

whats the song at 1:00?

[manichh1]

we can have a sitcom about bush while he's in office..."thats my bush" and "little bush"....but a man cant stand up and call obama a liar...

[0solution0]

27 comments.  lol

obviously Google is censoring.....again.

Google is evil.

[OceanCitySweetie]

Brilliant job. Nice Style, crusin' in a vinange mustang

[amorphos]

your cute

[veramann]

The 17-Mile Drive is the cleanest, nicest, and most beautiful place along the coast of CA.

[valeriestjohn]

Beautiful scenery, but have to agree, the Harmonica was hugely annoying!

[leloodallasmultipass]

What would have made this vid better is more sterility, less humor and more discipline. discipline, measurements, and discipline.

[nameismarshall]

Good video- excellent footage, and informative. However that Harmonica song ruined it, and the overly slow speaking made me feel like i was being spoken to like a child.

[fluffydolly]

northern cali is kool us101.

[mrsbaguette]

that avocado sandwich looks legit.

[jagerhardin]

Is this for that gay channel, Bravo?

[oriolesmi]

LOL this video sucks balls

[Pattty3]

The video looks boring.

[kikomiko1]

I thought it was supposed to be under 3 minutes?

[jess1832]

looks good!

[cmtsf2003]

awful and boring footage, sound quality and host. There was nothing magical or exciting about the presentation. Very 'safe' and mainstream clip.

[wedobelive]

u just dont know

[habiebiee]

i am sorry...but u talk funny...LMAO

wahahahahaha :D

[horacewayne]

boring and gay...there is a hundred more beautiful and striking road trips than this in the U.S. west...get a job!!!...or can i have yours???!!.......

[SmallWorldFilms]

Enjoyable video (except for the harmonica solo). I can see myself taking that same trip (without the harmonica). Looks great.

[langd8n]

I agree 100%. Especially about the harmonica. Maybe fade the sound slightly if you were desperate to keep the harmonica in there, but it still doesn't hide the fact that it wasn't a very good solo. Apart from that, awesome video!!

[SmallWorldFilms]

LOL. I have a pan flute that I'm just learning. Maybe I should risk the public health and play it in the background during my next video.

[ashmantoronto]

awe, it brings back my memories of the Pacific Coast Highway. Absolutely stunning. My friends and I did LA to SF and just the terrain changes in a few hours. From palm trees to pine trees, amazing!

[creten69]

i drove with my gf and kept pulling over to take photos,we got home at tahoe at 12 mid,she wouldnt drive at all and got mad because i turned up the radio loud,i could hardly stay awake.We fought and i was calling her a cunt to stay awake

[sa1994kimo]

Niiiice pecs!!!

[firebourn]

"road trip", to me it means endless hours of mindless, butt numbing driving.

how is that fun?

[ashmantoronto]

That's just 'driving' not a road trip.

Road trips are fun because of the things and scenery you do. It's not a roadtrip if you're driving solo, you have to do it with people, it's more fun that way.

Singing in the car, taking photos on the way, playing car games. The best part is it's a great time to bond with friends.

[hhhadii]

The beach at  2:51... just breathtaking!

[deliriouscouture]

that's pfeiffer burns state park. it's always used when people are extolling the virtues and beauty of the area.

you need to make more of an effort to get away from it all these days, even here. the big sur he's talking about existed in the 40s.
