I am LOVING this, I get to sit in my house, put my feet up, recline chair, and go on a cross-country trip without leaving my house, LOVING IT, THANK YOU SO MUCH
I have severe arthritis in my legs. I don't drive anymore. I am grateful for this video. I loved driving. Your giving me a lot to see. Thank you
I just started watching you AC. It relaxes me late at nite. I grew up in North Jersey so you passed all our towns and neighborhoods! We moved from Ridgewood when I was five, many memories of parents, relatives and their NYC conversations. I miss it all . Your NYC trips help me see what I missed!
For people who live in California or the Southwest, the lush greenery in the eastern states is just stunning to look at. Looks like a rainforest out there compared to what we have in southern California...
as someone who is born and raised in Arizona, I can totally relate 😂
*SoCal
Drive three hours north and boom it’s more lush than anything in this video
It’s crazy how much diversity of landscape we have in this country
@thattallguy9053 True because where I'm at in Lake Charles Louisiana we have swamp land and bayous filled with cypress trees 🌳 😊
Ahaha, great! I'm from Russia. At the end of summer, my wife and I went on vacation to relax, from St. Petersburg to the Black Sea, it’s about like you go from Anchorage in Alaska to California. I've driven 6,500 kilometers. Before the vacation, I watched local bloggers with the same videos: how it’s more convenient to travel, where it’s more profitable to refuel the car, where we stopped for the night... And then RUclips offers me to travel around America! Very interesting! It’s a pity your subtitles don’t work, I can’t understand what you’re saying by ear. In general, I have a day off, cognac, chocolate, ice cream and coffee. And a long journey across America. I like it!
comrade , enjoy your cognac and chocolate !
Me: Sitting here in Sweden and it's midnight and I should go to bed.
Also me: "-Hm, interesting..."
Wow I mean wow !! What a drive I’m saving this video… it helps me to fall asleep at night…. Thank you so much for sharing this video…. I love videos like this 😀✌🏻
I’ve grown up in Northern Jersey my whole life. So I’ve taken at least the NJ-PA section of this drive many, many times.
People from other states think Jersey is just the Turnpike and Airport, but we have really beautiful parks and greenery. Even the Pine Barrons down South are worth visiting.
Yes, we do live to our stereotypes in some ways, but there’s a lot of nice spots here!
The way New Jersey transforms from gritty urban ultra-density, to upscale suburbs, to idyllic countryside, in the space of about 30 minutes, is one of the most mindblowing drives in America.
Its the same for CT
every state with or near a large city does that. nothing done in new jersey is unique to new jersey
@@ATElevators
Bro quiet yourself. One of the most historical states in the nation, and it is indeed unique to NJ.
@@andrewquigley8938 If you think that having nice suburbs and urban environments is unique to jersey then clearly you’ve never been out of that sad state. PROLLY CAUSE OF THE TAXES 😂😂
@@ATElevators I have been many times. It's the close proximity that I like that is unique to the area. It's actually a fact. One of the most separated states actually.
Thank you for taking us on this trip. Personally I cannot do stuff like this anymore because of my age and since I got rid of my car. Last long driving trip was the week of July 4th 2023 with my son from Miami to New York city. It was with his car.
That's a nice road trip and bonding time with your son. 🙂
Much appreciated, glad you enjoyed the video
If your starting point is Manhattan whey isn't you take the Holland tunnel, it will put you in new Jersey, going to the GWB your heading north to the Bronx, then cross over the bridge to Jersey.
I absolutely love this, dude.. You're a great tour guide and road trip mate, too!!! Thanks, ActionKid. I genuinely intend to slowly view every episode.
For me as a German, it's just astonishing how big the US are. When the traffic is okay and you make one or two stops, you'd cross Germany north to south in approximately 11 to 12 hours.
Texas is twice as big as USA. And texas is just one of the fifty states of USA
Gemany is a teeny tiny country compared to usa
Gemany is also a cultural, technological and economic bakwate compared to usa
@@Tony-lj5lr are you high?
LMAOOO
@@Tony-lj5lr May I ask where you live ? And where did you take your information from ?
@@marvinl8519 Yeah, Texas is TWICE as big?
Note: NJ has a law that you can't stay in left lane for more than 1 1/2 miles. It should technically only be used for passing or exiting or entering.
Even if there isn't a law, it's bad driving etiquette
that is the standard in europe as well
I've driven across country 3 times and never seen anyone abiding by this rule. Left lane is fast lane.
Left lane is fast lane
I've never seen that enforced in my life.
I live in Sydney, Australia. I really enjoy watching all your videos. Both Driving and walking videos. It's very interesting, and I get to see parts of the USA that have always fascinated me. Thank you for sharing your videos. Please keep posting more.
what a great place to live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For somebody from Europe this is also great to view. On the one hand it looks so familiar, and sometimes it's different. I have only driven (in the USA) from the airport in New Jersey to Manhattan, so everything is really new to me. What was surprising to see was how green de sides next to the highways are, just beautiful. In New Jersey the amount of lanes where 3 to 4 while there are only 2 lanes in Pennsylvania up until now. Furthermore it was very quiet on the road there on a Saturday (after the trafficjam) This was a great start of the overland tour, i will view the second part later. For now thanks, and best regards from the Netherlands.
my dream to drive in the US some day. the wide roads look real cool
Weee. I Love New Yorks Bridges. I wanted to be in the car with my arms up.
😂😂😂😂❤🎉
I live in the Netherlands, and this trip is very high on my bucket list. I'm 57 years old and not in a good place right now, but your video will help me envision my dream. Thank you so much for uploading your travel adventures. I am looking forward to accompanying you!
I hope you can realize your desire to do a cross country trip. I've done it a few times now with different routes and it's amazing how beautiful yet extremely large the USA is
@@Mark-uh4zd It's the country with the most diverse landscape on earth. It will be stunning! Is there a particular route you'd advise?
@@carmenl163 I-80 east to west or west to east drive practically covers most of the US, it is NY to SF route
@@carmenl163 like the other poster said, i80 will literally get you coast to coast. I’m pretty sure it runs from seaside NJ to San Fran.
Another good route is 80-44-40. That’ll bring you NY, PA, OH, IN, MO, OK, TX, NM, AZ, CA.
I70 goes pretty far cross country. Make sure to also drive route 50 in Nevada, the “loneliest road” in the USA. Do this during spring or fall if your car is iffy, as it gets HOT out there and you go dozens and dozens of miles without a rest stop.
There are some more routes that take you through the dakotas, Montana, Idaho.
But yeah, i80 is an awesome beginner trip across the USA to really see the diversity of the landscape.
@@Mark-uh4zd Thank you! I'll copy-paste your comment and keep it on my bucket list.
I took Amtrak across country from DC to LA it was fun have yet to drive it.
NYC driving at night goes crazy.
In 100 years this video will be legendary and I'll be dead
Thanks for this Great Road-trip. Amazing🤩
I did this trip in 1979 in a 1967 cougar age 24, i still got the 67 cougar, now 68 years old, where did the time go!
idk why i havent commented on any of your videos, i have been watching your stuff for years. you showed a lot of US for us. i've never been there, never even been outside my country. i'm grateful that people like you are showing us what different parts of the world are like. i also learned that driving is scary for me who lives in a walkable city my whole life xD
I'm from Canada but we are still extremely car-dependent outside of major cities, and I agree driving is very scary I'm not sure how we've become so used to it lol... My first time driving major highways into cities was just ridiculously nerve-wracking but I've learned the more nervous and hesitant you are, the harder it is! And we wonder why there are so many major accidents 😅
That’s about 2 days driving. Safe travels.
You can drive 40 hours in 2 days?
That’s way more than “about 2 days”
Yeah, if you’re on meth
These traveling videos across the U.S are great to watch especially when its known that there’s lots more videos to come 😎Thank you for sharing this enjoyable and relaxing drive A K 🙂👍!!!
Much appreciated, there's a lot more to come in this series
This is definitely ASMR. Good background vid to watch while I study or work in the office. Thanks for the vid. The voice didn’t bother to much.
@@NoHarmDunn you can always visit J Utah for voiceless drives but ActionKid's facts were intriguing and enjoyable too :)
Great music AK
Safe trip. God will guide u❤
I'm from the UK and never been to NY, everytime I see this city it blows my mind what a mega city it is. I'd love to spend a few weeks exploring around it and seeing the sights
I did round trips across the country twice. Once on route 40 and then 80. Quickest time was 52 hours from NYC to Ca.
Nice, I have always dreamed of traveling across the US like this. Wish I could go along with you!
Awesome
My Dad would get in his car and take uz & go!! ❤😂🎉 He was an "Adventurer" like You! He'd take 2 wks. Of our summer break, and go the entire "west coast" to Cali.. Then next year, the entire South coast to Atlanta or Mississippi.
We'd stay at different hotels, and visit a store or something in each city!! My "Dad" was Amazing just like You AK!!❤😂🎉
thank you very much sir, because this is exactly the content I was looking for, be it long 4K driving videos, drone aerials or hiking in the US!
In Poland as if we drove a car through the lanes as in minute 16:38 we would receive a fine of $363.89. When a pedestrian is standing in the lanes and there are no lights, the order is to let them pass.
wow this is amazing, really calming and soothing
No reckless driving, no traffic idiots, I'm shocked, cool, calm.
awesome! ACTION Kid always so versatile with his vlogging
Good journy through this great country
NYC has such nicer drivers then here in l.a. I was born and raised in Alhambra and e.l.a. I was so excited when I saw Alhambra.And Garfield. Our house was on the south side of s.b. fwy right off Garfield. Before the cement walls there was a fence between fwy and our Ramona Rd. Thanks Man. My mom turned me on to you. She’s 85 from Lancaster P.A. When she was 12 her father got a job in l.a co. Took Route 66 all the way.
Alhambra in Spain?
Great series. Enjoyed your commentary. Thank you 🗽
awesome! ACTION Kid always so versatile with his vlogging, will be watching and liking this road trip the entire way to L.A
Thank you for watching
That construction zone caused me so much frustration and anxiety and I wasn't even in the car 😵💫😅
SO looking forward to this. Thank you!
thank you love it, with you every drive of the way
Woohoo for Part 1 of your epic cross country road trip! 🤩 It was nice to see the Lower Manhattan skyline at the beginning and the different sceneries through New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The whole drive has been fairly smooth until you hit the road construction/closure in PA 1:52:00. Thank you for sharing this drive, AK! 🤗 Congrats on 396K! 🎉
My pleasure, it was so nostalgic to go through Manhattan knowing I won't be seeing it in person for awhile! The road construction in Pennsylvania really surprised me
Poggers, u saw the entire video non-skip? noice
Construction on those highways goes on forever :/ beautiful area though@@ActionKid
nice, looks like NYC got some new roads
Thanks for this Great Road-trip. Amazing
It’s my dream to do a cross country road trip through Route 66. I live in NYC and ever since I watched Pixar cars, I’ve always wanted to do a cross country road trip and visit the town or areas radiator springs was based on
Thanks for taking us along for the ride. See ya in part II
It feels weirdly nostalgic seeing the same road you drive by, watching in this video
Wow AK! You drove that far?! 🎉 Did you have to go through the Rocky Mountains as Well!
You are so Awrsome AK❤😂🎉! I Salute You!
nice driving from NYC to Los Angeles with beautiful views along the journey 👍👍👍
I’m a road tripper myself. I Love Seeing.
Just started watching, but looking forward to this epic journey!
This is legendary A.K.! Awesome!
Such a Beautiful road trip.❤😂🎉. Love the scenety!
Thank you for sharing this drive.
I did it already. Amazing trip !!!
I’m planning to make the same trip, but from New York through a more southern corridor. I want to see some of the landmarks and historical sites as I go. Great video, or shall I say videos actionkid. I intend to watch your full trip.
watching this makes me feel like I’m on a road trip
Cool Trip
Enjoying the trip. Left from NYC to Las Vegas.
Thank you for sharing 🙂
Love the commentary....it really helps the video.
great video, thank you
Watching this on 5-6 times the speed is the way to go. Love it.
this is going to be a good trip i remember you did a video from MIA to NYC safe ride and safe place and now new trip NYC to LA LETS GOOO!!!! stay safe on your trip
Wow driving from NYC to LA awesome wow interesting
Nice and smooth drive!
Amazing video, during august, I traveled to Mt.Pocono near Scranton PA
Excellent! Excellent road trip, especially with your commentary! Many thanks! I watched some of the "speeded-up" version you posted, but I must confess to falling asleep halfway through Indiana, waking up in time for Colorado. I was supposed to be weeding the garden, but it was pouring out. As it was still raining, I switched to my favorite of your videos - your Oct. 29, 2021, scooter tour of Boston looking at Halloween decorations. Your reaction to the interior of the Boston Public Library is priceless. One thing I have always wondered about - while you were on Beacon Hill in Louisburg Square, your scooter fell over. It hit some dirt and wasn't damaged, but your phone landed on the granite paving. Was it damaged? I once dropped my Nikon camera in almost the same place. I had to replace the camera body. Anyway - again, many thanks for all your excellent videos!
I'm glad you'll be able to enjoy this real time version of the video then
Thank you for posting the trip.
This is a great series, ActionKid! I just hoped the series would've been done by state-by-state.
Damn good vid !! Coming from Maryland, I lived in Sacramento for 10 yrs, while serving 16yrs with Your UNITED STATES AIR FORCE... [ I was a C-5 Galaxy Pilot ]. Spent time in Kuwait during "Operation Dessert Storm -- 1994 ]
you are legend, ActionKid
❤😂🎉 I Agree!! So Awesome!!
You are an amazing driver you make it look so easy.. And of course the video are always excellent, can't wait for the other videos, so take care stay safe AK😊
You're welcome, thank you for watching!
Watch out for pedestrians in crosswalks!
Enjoy the ride, take care of the ride 🚗 my friend 😮❤
Great job and I love it and be careful with the or car
Beautiful varied drive, we have the skyline of New York and the greenery of the mountains. Incredible how close New York is from The Appalachians, you can get in 1-2 hours, depending on traffic, from the city to great hiking areas. The traffic jam must have been annoying, you lost almost 1h there. Thanks for the video, look forward for the next ones, greetings from a road tripper from Germany!
Sure did take a long time to get out of town.
Than you for making a dream come true. Best RUclips experience ever.
Happy Wednesday night AK been kind of busy watching the hurricane we got lucky in Orlando just your typical thunderstorm. Tampa got flooded pretty good but you have to feel sorry for the people that lived up in the Big bend area. Just now watching part 1 and I'm not going to stop until we get to LA. That was something different coming out of NYC getting to New Jersey without going through the tunnel That's The first time I've seen that. Watching the retired rail fan videos of the Northeast corridor really familiar with Amtrak to Philadelphia and I know it goes across the Delaware just west of Trenton. Not too familiar with interstate 80 kept looking for East Rutherford where the Jets and Giants play I guess you were close to there but I did not see anything. Really love your road trips I love driving and seeing places I haven't been. Thank you so much for putting in the hard work so we can enjoy it with you
Hearty Greetings, Congratulations and Best Wishes to Mr. Kenneth aka ActionKid for completing thirteen years on September 6th and going great through the seventh year of daily uploads in RUclips. All The Best in Your Earnest Enterprising Emerging Evolving Endeavor from Kakinada/Hyderabad, India💐🤝✊️👌👍
Have a safe and awesome road trip!
Many thanks!
Absolutely loved it! Keep filming. and maybe talk a bit more if you like, but absolutely amazing
Thank You dear friend! Chances I drive this road are close to zero so Your video gives a feeling I was there, too. THANK YOU from a russian guy!
Nice long trip, I haven't try a long drive . Your new friend
Pumice. Thanks for my new Vocab word.
Oh my gosh wow 😮👏
The Delaware watergap at 1:33:30 is magnificent
Just started watching.
So wish I was going with you!
Love great drive. And you started from my old area 21st and 30th Ave 👍
😊❤🧡💛💚💙💜Me and my son took this rought after leaving Michigan in 2010 where relatives had terrorized us, it felt good getting out of that God-forsaken-place, but we loved New York.
Good
Very green
Oh man that's so fun I love road trips. I wish I was driving across country right now
Glad you enjoy them
love these videos
Just drove across the USA myself. What I learned is you have to stop about every 3 hours for gas & hit the bathroom & stretch your legs. So dont be afraid to drink water, you have to stop for gas & stretch anyway so dont be worried about needing to stop just to piss. "Love's" rest stops are a godsend. They are spaced out all along the major interstates. That plus Google Maps GPS makes the drive so much easier. It's so valuable if you take a wrong turn/get off the Interstate for whatever reason. Also for finding places to eat & hotels. The GPS and the fact there are Love's all along the interstate took away 80% of my stress. Makes the drive so much easier. I was able to do about 500 miles per day, 10 hour days. If you sleep very well you may be able to 12+, 600 miles.
Once you start yawning it seems you have an hour or so before you start nodding off at the wheel. It's a HORRIBLE feeling and very scary. Get a bottle of caffeine pills and take one if you start nodding, and find the nearest hotel and sleep. It may save your life
I'm actually quite familiar with I-80 through NJ and eastern PA.
You're a legend.
