l m asked:


Im planning on driving from Chicago to los angeles. I drive a toyota corolla 1993 with 93,000 miles on it. Some guy told me he did the drive before and that driving over the mountains would possibly destroy my transmission. I plan to go from 60-65 MPH and break every 4 hours for 30 min to let things cool down. How do i avoid the mountains? My plan is to use i-80 till i hit Denver then I-25 and finally I-40 to get to LA. Any realistic advice about this topic?
also a guy at the auto shop told me to but some type of transmission coolant thing for $70 if i plan to drive the mountains. can someone give me some advice about this. i really cant afford my transmision going out so i want to play it safe.
Johnny b good thanks for the advice.. i looked it up and it looks good but it adds on 400 miles/7 hours extra to my route. is it really worth it. are these mountains through denver that bad?

How would I get to Chinatown in Chicago via the Metra train? I want to get on at the University Park station, but I don’t know how far a ride it is or the best place to get off, or if there would be a need to switch trains.
