After I entered Cottonwood, Arizona, and Bombay Beach, California, the route shifted through Yuma and I thought “why not?” That’s cool, but what was invaluable for planning this trip was that I could add destinations and see how it would change our journey.
If you enter the type of car you’ll be driving it’ll estimate how much gas will cost, too. You add your starting point and your destination and it plots them on a map, showing you the route and how much time it will take. Roadtrippers is an online planning tool for – you guessed it – road trips. This is part of our EPIC Southwest USA road trip from the Chicago-area to San Diego and back! I hadn’t even seen the movie, either the original or the remake, so the only thing I really knew was that there was a place called Yuma and there were outlaws and a train.
Besides the movie “3:10 to Yuma,” I knew nothing about the border city in southwestern Arizona.
