    Done it many times, car, truck and motorcycle. Great drive. In Summer it will be hot. Gas is available in every little town - the longest stretch between gas stations won't be more than 50 miles.

    Definitely take the road through Cisco, it's spectacular and it cuts a few miles off the drive. For more scenic views, stay on 163 through Monument Valley all the way to Kayenta.

    I take it you haven't driven through NE Arizona before? It's ALL part of the Rez, pretty sure it's the biggest indian reservation in the US. Your guns won't be an issue unless you start waving them around - I presume you weren't planning on doing that?

    Time zones may throw you off: Here's the deal: AZ does not observe DST so right now AZ is in the same time zone as CA.

    BUT...the Navajo Reservation DOES observe DST. So the Rez will be on MDT same as us but once you're off the Rez you will be on California time.

    I ran into this issue when I was trying to qualify for a Saddlesore 1000 ride back in 2014 (a Saddlesore 1000 is where you ride a verified 1000 miles on a motorcycle in 24 hours or less.)

    If you love your freedom, thank a veteran. If you love to party, thank the Beastie Boys. They fought for that right.
