Is this the most EPIC town on Route 66?

- Tonight we stay at the MOST FAMOUS Route 66 Motel. We also see Epic Neon! Crazy Architecture! Abandoned buildings, Murals, Cheesy Souvenirs! Imagine driving across the hot and dusty desert without air conditioning, when all of a sudden you spot a billboard that reads, "Tucumcari Tonight! Over 2000 Hotel Rooms!" Its another Randomland Adventure!
So is this the most epic town on Route 66? Honestly, so far, probably. This one, Kingman, and Seligman are fighting for the top spot, but Tucumcari might just have the advantage with friendly people, amazing neon, and multiple museums! Judge for yourself!

My cousin and her in-laws own and operate The Blue Swallow! I showed them this video and they loved it!! My other cousin painted the corn hole boards you guys were using. How cool!
Epic shot of the Lightning Bolt!!! :)
that American pickers reference was gold within itself
Great to see Oscar! "I'm standing outside because I'm a genius". Love you, Justin.
It makes me so happy that the people who live along the route and operate these businesses try so hard for you to have a good time. They really care about their guests. Watching these videos makes me want to take the pilgrimage myself.
If every single one of those old buildings on 66 were resorted imagine all the jobs it would create!
Nah, I like them where they are.
wow that would be cool
But they would only be temp jobs though, once they're all restored the jobs go away. Maybe not all of them, but most of them, you'd only need a small staff to maintain the buildings. There would be no long term jobs since you really couldn't re-open all of those old motels and gas stations, they all went out of business for a reason and there's probably not enough local or tourist traffic to keep them in business.
Were you thinking alphabetically or by color?
Hey Oscar! Always fun to see him on your show.
Can we appreciate that the things may be old but they are so clean and well maintained!!! Can we just give kudos
I was feeling down and stressed, I feel relaxed after watching this episode. It's like I was along for the trip to this town.
One of the best videos you've ever done Justin!! The Blue Swallow and it's gorgeous neon, Oscar and a freakin Delorean all packed in there!! 💖 it!!!
awesome justin. keep em Rollin. I B positive your videos are injecting a much needed positive in my life. thank you man.
Perfect timing with the lightning. That Blue Swan Hotel looks amazing!!
Haha! Enjoyed the Forrest Gump impersonations.
The Blue Swallow sign and lightning bolt shot was amazing!
That's poetry,Justin- "Check out this rad hippie art car"!! Love it!!Oscar is a great straight man side kick. He plays off you well!!
Great video as always. The lightning bolt... EPIC!
Loved the sign at 8:06 !! 🤣😂😃. Glad to see you and Oscar together again 🤗😎
Well you out did yourself on this one thanks to the storm. The lighting was the star of this one for sure. It was nice to meet your friend... Keep up the good work. It's going to be tuff to top this video... LOL,LOL
That Oscar guy is super cool!!!
Oscar Lopez Films what is "Oscars Odyssey"?
It's what I call my videos...kinda like how Justin has "Randomland Adventures"
Oscar Lopez Films lol
Yeah, and that DIY T-shirt. He's super awesome ;D LOL
Oscar Lopez Films you totally sounded like Forrest Gump @ 20:52! Seeing that Delorean instantly reminded me of when you and Justin filmed the reenactment of BTTF. 🤗😎
1955, your relatives traveled route 66 the same year Doc Brown invented the flux capacitor...weeeeeeird
Rockabilly on the Route?!! Oh this changes everything!! It MUST happen!! Tucumcari looks epic!
The Blue Swallow Motel is totally awesome!!! Great you finally got to stay there!!
Great vid... I've never been even near route 66... So I enjoy these vid. .. They're cool man....
Loved the very end with the Delorian in the lightning storm. 👍 Absolutely AWESOME!
Amazing!! Putting Tucumcari on my map for the next time I'm in NM!!
Another epic Route 66 vlog, an abundance of murals and signs and another 24 Route 66 mentions, nobody does it better.
"You can check ✅ ✔️ out any time you like, but you can never leave" awesome Eagles/motel seugways!!! Attaboy, Justin Scarred n Oscar!!!
I love old motels, always have, the older the better, It's like a time warp, and I dig that!
So nice to see Oscar too! And here you are again on another amazing trip, doing stuff some people only dream about! Sure you were just in Paris and now you're driving the whole of Route 66, that's all LOL! Justin Scarred, you are AMAZIN! (Said in Huell Howser voice)
LOL bugs don't bug me much, I can't have um at home of course, but some bugs here and there meh, I can rough it! ;) Ha ha..
Love that thunder and lightning!!!!!
I love these videos so much, I haven't been able to go on road trips for years due to medical reasons. I love old fashioned motels, they're such neat living pieces of history. Those old timey photos were awesome, Knott's Berry Farm has the same kind of thing!
You all added something to my bucket list… RT 66 with the used PT Cruiser I just got. 2019
Encountered the biggest storm and flooded streets in Tucumcari while traveling to Vegas in 1982... pretty ironic
Dude, that is seriously a GREAT Doc Brown impersonation! Love this trip along Route 66. Keep up the GRRRREAT work!
7:15 Holy Toledo, I laughed so hard at the romance between the city girl and the cowboy! Hahaha! The photos were great too! Oscar's all cool and collected and Justin is over there getting CRAZY lol
It's great to see the town fighting its way back, rather than just giving up. It could just put itself back on the map again as an alternative destination. Thanks for the vlog -very entertaining.
I enjoy watching Adam the Woo and your videos. It's like I am there with you guys on your adventures discovering so many wonderful places. Thanks again Justin!
Loved the Forrest Gump quotes about the rain. Haha
More properties kept to original specs. Love it!! Hey, a guest appearance by Oscar! What are the odds of you in a thunderstorm and coming across a Delorean? Great Scott!!
ESSO! "Put a tiger in your tank!" LOL There was an Esso station on the corner of the block when I was growing up in Memphis in the 1960's. Now the pumps are gone, and the building is a Latino convenience store.
Fun pic with the lightning bolt. Very clever of you to arrange that on cue.
Justin this was awesome. Thanks for sharing.
I love this series! Have you ever given thought to driving US 1 from Key West to Maine. Very historic highway like the east coast Route 66.
Loving the videos where businesses and attractions are still in operation. The ghost towns and abandoned buildings are interesting, but so sad. Thanks for taking us with you on your Route 66 adventure. :-)
I think this is my favorite video of Justin's current Route 66 Adventure so far!!!!
man i like your vids keep em rolling bro!!!!!!!!
I love all of your BTTF references
lol. "Things... This way!" Awesome video!
tucumcari is mentioned in that great old song " willin' " . nice to see what it looks like these days. for you guys it seems tucumcari became tucumSCARY with that lightning storm. nothing like a bolt from the heavens to remind us of just how insignificant were are on this planet.
I love your "mural performance"! Great video Justin!
20:21 Why don't I ever have such a great opportunity like that to get a picture of lightning?! That was perfect!
I love it when you say " Fun Pic " I smile every time
'Relax,' said the night man, 'We are programmed to receive. You can check-out any time you like, But you can never leave!'
Truely EPIC !!!
I'm loving this trip down Route 66! I live on the east coast and haven't had the opportunity to drive it so I'm living vicariously through you. If you ever have the chance to visit the east coast, you have to go to Wildwood, New Jersey. That island is practically all retro architecture and has some awesome neon. It's even better when you visit during car show weekend with all the old cars to accompany the cute motels. You would love the Caribbean Motel.
Cool pics. great video.
I feel like im watching Pee Wees Big Adventure! I love it! I’m actually looking forward to my trip next week. Very informative video
Love this video! LOL!
I'm going to drive route 66 one day. lol that fun pic with the lightning. Dang Oscar get out from under the trees!!!!!
Love watching you video
Wow. The gas sign was Esso. Only see that name in Canada now. They changed the name in the USA to Exxon back in the 70s . Excellent video Justin. Lots of "good stuff"
Great to see Oscar again!
One day I seriously need to take this trip. Nice catch on the lighting bolt!
justin you are so lucky that you get to go to these cool places you are one lucky lucky guy 😊👍
It's late October and I'm watching these for the first time.
The first Bat-Mobile was Candy-Apple-Rsd!🦇!!!!!
Hey Justin, I was in a thrift store in Harlem, Georgia today and found the book, "The Grapes of Wrath" for a quarter. Since you have been mentioning the movie on you Route 66 travels, I figured it was kismet!! Really like these Vlogs!!! Look forward to many more of them!! Be good or good at Sir!!
lol that doc brown impression was perfect!
Remember to stop by Elm Steet Eatery when you come through lebanon Mo. We are rt 66 lovers!!
We had those same lamps only they were in pink and gold instead of the black and gold. I remember how popular chenille bed spreads were, my grandmother had them on every bed of her house.
if I saw that lightning I would be hiding under the covers ,you must be brave going out and filming in it . I was scared for you I was sitting here saying out loud "get in go inside dont hold your phone up in the air lol great video even though I nearly went into melt down .
Love seeing Oscar again , another great upload !
You both are awesome 👌
First time I went through Tucumcari was 1947 and I was in a 1939 Packard. My dad was heading to the promised land of California. Last time was 2019 and I was driving a Mercury Marquise and stayed at the Blue Swallow. If I live long enough I'll move to Tucumcari. Just see if I don't!
Really enjoyed your content.
Great to see Oscar!!
great video!
WOW awesome Motel :)
another masterpice
I went through Tucumcari on a Rt. 66 trip with a buddy back in '94. We stayed the night there, but I believe it was at a more modern chain motel. I can kick myself in the ass for not staying at the Swallow. We drove by it, but I guess I chickened out. Did stop in TeePee Curios, though. Anyway, the real lost opportunity was the fact that Lillian Redman was still alive and owned the Blue Swallow back then. I'm so disappointed in myself for not staying there and getting to meet her. Ugh!
The SHIZE of that GAR GANTUAN TEPEE........LAUGHING MY ASS OFFFFFFF
awesome they gave you a ride in the rambler! i live where those were made
Not only was it on Route66 but the Rock Island route merged with the Southern Pacific there where the Golden State passenger train came in and the Memphis to Tucumcari route came in on the east side of town which was abandon when they went bankrupt.
Thanks for covering Justin. Be sure to stop at the café in Shamrock on the way through.
7:50 killing me! Hilarious!
Good impersonation of Mike Wolf. Lol.
Awesome
Forrest Gump references, awesome!
Nice pictures! Lol 😁
I was there about a month before you, Watson's bbq was amazing
That end song is lit
If you want to see anything like RT.66 in it's heyday you check out Breezewood ,PA. off the PA. Turnpike!
7:00 haha that impression wasn't bad!
Heh... when I saw Oscar's vid posted yesterday about "exploring route 66" I somehow had a suspicion you would meet up. :-)
I love desert thunder storms. They're kind of... invigorating.
I was about to say man your room at the end looked a lot tinier but looked at the part where you first opened the door again an noticed that area in the back with that bed :)
LOL That lightning strike at 20:28 put Oscar on the move.
"A little plug! For the drain!" XD
You and Oscar should do a cover of Hotel California.
:O Oscar! How you doin' buddy! That's so great to see both of your together! What a coincidence!
LOL five THOUSAND dollars?! Did he say that?! Hahaha.
Yes I noticed that! Someone is taking care of it, and that's honestly so touching to know. It's touching to know there are people out there who appreciate history and wish to preserve whatever's left. I think what I love the most is how people come up with these great ideas of turning old places into museums. That really keeps it alive and well :)
You can check in anytime you want but you can NEVER LEEAVEEE I caught the reference! I caught it!
Blue Swallow?! That's crazy!! I thought of that name for a fictional ship in my book! That's so crazy oh my gosh. Okay, definitely on my bucketlist!! That's so cool oh my goodness!! Okay, so it's both amotel and a museum given that they still have old fashioned stuff in it, along with the old fashion cars! Genius!
The Blue Swallow motel people seem to be so cool! A+ service!
I'm so glad you bumped into Oscar! You guys seemed to have a total blast!! Hope to see him in the next video, if not, looking forward to it either way!
JUSTIN, Nice to see Oscar again!!! Should we have Dan Bell and his crew check out the your motel!!!!
7:51 The Route 66 Ghost tried to steal your camera Justin!!!
"A bear in his natural habitat - a Studebaker". Great Muppets/ Studebaker seugway!!! Attaboy, Justin Scarred - you're batting A thousand!!;
This reminds me of the great Lowell George song ....Willin..?
