It's not a bad drive at all. I make it from the LBC in about 2 hrs max, so add 45 mins or so from LA.

A 3 hr drive? Another half hour and I can be in Vegas lol

I suppose I'll see if I'm up for the drive when the time comes. Thanks for the heads up on approx. how long it would take.

+1

It's like 120 miles, so only about 1 1/4 hours each way. Maybe if you're driving during rush hour or at 40 mph does it take 3 hours

seriously ... SD to LA is not that long

and its 100 miles from San Diego to Downtown LA, which means if you drive during non-traffic time, you'll be there around 1hr and 45 mins going 75mph

i made La Jolla to Anaheim in 45 mins going 90mph

now, traffic hour is a completely different story

LA and SD aren't that different, except you can be silly down here without having to worry about getting shot

Oh and you can get from point A to point B without waiting through an hour of traffic
