As I understand it, it took until about 1984 until I-40 was completed, totally bypassing US 66. Who would dislike this? lol The Visions-Route 66---written by Bobby Troup of the Emergency! fame.
In 1992, I had my 59 Corvette, the 66th anniversary of Rte 66, I hit route 66 at 6:06am in the morning. Near Oatman. So, I was going 66mph with my 6 year old son. I was 42:: 4=2=6. It Was June 6, that's 6-6. I couldn't make 6's out of 1992. But I did a good job with the dates. No one was out there, past Valentine, into Seligman. It was Very green that year and flies were thick as the green. A lonely highway 66 on 6-6 going 66mph on the 66th aniv' with a 6 year old......
@Chris951021 uh... maybe that was true once upon a time but it seems the brutal murderous crazy people moved to the major cities or at least the culture in some cities appear to be that way. ^_~
Great movie. Historic Route 66... make sure to take a ride along this wonderful road. I especially enjoyed my stop at the Hackberry General Store. Just a few hours away from Las Vegas.
US Routes are much more intreasting to Drive than interstates to me.......and thats what Killed them...interstates.......a lot of Towns Died when the Interstates were Built.
Actually, the movie's location is based in Arizona. Radiator Springs is technically based on the real town of 'Peach Springs'. If you look at the map in the movie you will see that it is based on the stretch of road between Williams, AZ and Kingman, AZ. The towns are Seligman, Peach Springs, etc. Just to set some people straight on that it isn't a fake movie and does have a lot of truth to it. Especially the locations........
You can believe that we were better off having to drive through every little town and stop at traffic lights if you want to, I like the Interstates. I liked this movie and I don't mind nostalgia, but don't get carried away. It's also cool that you can find little towns out there to live in that life has "passed by" because they still look like yesterday. It might be a good place to go live go get out of the rat race.
Bitchen. I live in a small Route 66 Town in Northern Arizona, that was by-passed because of Interstate 40. The Town came back to life because of the Grand Canyon Rail Road and now is filled with Tourists. Our Town's entrance signs state "THE BEST OF ROUTE 66". Neet Movie, Neet Town.........
I am goinng to be walking down 66 in an attempt to break the World Record by walking from NYC to LA in less than 53 days. The majority of myy walk is on 66 and through the towns that were by passed. This song inspries me. Thanks for your comment.
@greymountian I have been inspired by Route66 for a long time now... In Norway, where I live, theres similar small towns that has been bypassed by the countless of roadupgrades, one town, has been isolated for so long that its allmost completely empty... We call these roads for "The old Road", if the road is even older, we call "The older road"... Today there are approxi. 5roads that has been bypassed for saving driving, 2of these roads got 1 or more small towns that was bypassed...
@greymountian What town in Arizona? In 2009, I did a 3 week driving trip from Chicago to a friend in Lake Havasu and back using as much of Route 66 I could find. I met awesome people in Illinois, Joplin, tourists from Paris in Kansas, an English couple at the Blue Whale in OK, had breakfast in Clinton OK with a Canadian family, met an Ausie couple at the GC, fed the donkeys in Oatman with people from all over! The Kingman 66 Museum! OMG! I missed stuff and am planning another trip.

President Eisenhower did the wrong thing by signing that act. But now you have a choice you can drive on Route 66 or you can drive on the interstate.
