    Hard to say exactly since you only give states, but say LA to Newark is 200 extra miles running 10.

    You used "best" and "New Jersey" in the same sentence. Not every day you see that.

    You in San Deigo? Fontana? kind of matters. Cali is a pretty long state.

    Hate breakin it to ya boss, but if you are going to Jersey, you WILL be going through some hills. Also, if you stay on the big roads, theres going to be a toll or three. If this is your first time across I would highly recommend staying on the big roads, and planning for the most direct route, money saved on fuel could offset some of the tolls. Best of luck to you
