[@joemomma1968]

Nice highways... Very nice highways... Awsome.. I love highways.... Sweet... These are the best kind of highways.. The very best.. Definitely

[@Gnomiiie]

ya me too

[@donavanjohnson409]

Nice freeway tour

[@gholler1546]

I drive the beltline every day, you forgot to mention Prairie Road, so many mills on that road and off of it. So many log haulers, chip haulers, major place for commerce in Eugene. I work at on of the mills.

[@gholler1546]

You almost just showed my trip to work and home in Springfield,

[@Evan_Butler]

I lived here my whole life, in the Eugene-Springfield area

[@PatrickDavis28]

My brain just about melted upon seeing that route map

[@InterstateKyle]

LOL!

[@AtagoJRPG]

I saw it too. it would be nice to see the direction of where you are going @InterstateKyle like how freeway jim does his route.

[@compdude100]

@@AtagoJRPG I agree, some arrows would have been nice. I've started doing that in my videos.

[@marquamfurniture]

Wow! I had no idea it looked this depressing. Something to drive through as quickly as possible!

[@thebionicpig]

We really appreciate the time and effort you put into your video's because it's not just eye candy - our knowledge of the area is escalated so much by the amazing information you provide.

[@InterstateKyle]

Thank you very much!

[@KCWanderlust]

Ringo, George and Sir Paul. I was almost expecting one more tune from John (to complete the circle). Cool video! 😎

[@InterstateKyle]

Hey how don’t forget to add Sir in front of Ringos name! I believe he got knighted in 2018 I believe.

[@KCWanderlust]

@@InterstateKyle ...And you are right. I had to Google that.

[@MarshallLoveday]

Interesting tour....... We moved to Springfield, Oregon in 2009 after living in Orange County, CA. since 1981. It did take a few weeks of driving around to get the 'lay of the land' as it were, a bit longer than I would have expected. Oregon is a beautiful state, and even after 11 years, there's still some discoveries we haven't got to yet.........

[@rhianimal19]

Springfield, OR, the inspiration for the Simpsons hometown

[@a.rae.]

Lol yeah I live here. It's sad 😆

[@Dj_lilfate]

You must of film this a couple of months ago the homeless camp at the end of beltline and 126/w11th is now cleaned up but relocated to the grassy part of the 105 on ramp, im also surprised you didn't go to the end of 126 to Bob straus to turn around instead of Mohawk

[@Dj_lilfate]

@Amber Frey I use to live in stadium park on kinsrow before I moved to Thurston

[@beckylynn209]

I've lived here since 1975, and loved it!! I wish this guy would have driven through here when the grass was green.. It's been ridiculously hot the last 2 week's, so it's all dried out.. Anyway it's a great place to live.. 🌲❤️🌲

[@MandMProductions44]

Wow, great video! The scenery and music pairs well together and I love the information that you added into the video, it’s really interesting. I was wondering though: hope do you make the signs look so nice? Does someone take them live as you’re driving or do you use a different method? Great video and happy 10th anniversary! 👍

[@InterstateKyle]

I make the signs from scratch except the ones I can’t duplicate because of some special font or sign used that’s not possible. I can get the fonts down to a tee.. mostly talking about exit signs here and distance signs.. so the other signs can be found on the internet with a quick search.

[@MandMProductions44]

@@InterstateKyle Oh wow that’s really cool! Do you use a special program on your computer that allows you to make highway signs?

[@GreatAussieDrives]

Fantastic video! I love that you covered all the main roads in and around the city. It's interesting to me that the I-5 is named the Pacific Highway in Oregon, as the Pacific Highway is also the name of the highway between Sydney and Brisbane here in Australia. 😊

[@freewayelliott3481]

The freeway system in Eugene looks nice, considering the new bridge across wiliamette River

[@HalmarkCreates]

It’s pretty trash still. Everyone drives 20 under the speed limit.

[@dwood78part23]

It's been a while since you did a one-video tour of the highways & byways of an area. So we're in for a treat here!

[@gtgene]

A lot of lessons in your highways vids as usual, as well as some good info on George, Ringo and Paul's successful solo careers. I see there's a craft to making great road videos and you are among the best at it.

[@nickc8863]

Fun factoid: the Native populations that were here before us used to avoid this entire area because their people just got sick and died here a lot.. a "valley of sickness & death" if you will.. not much has changed..

[@GlassmakerRN]

You're definitely from California . . . Riding in the left lane all the way again. Hey, you should slow down a little.

[@mushroomsteve]

The West Eugene Parkway would have gone right through the middle of the West Eugene wetlands, an important ecosystem and migratory bird habitat, with a freeway splitting it right in half. It was a terrible idea. Currently, the bike path goes through there. It would have been a shame to lose that amazing bike path. LA built more freeways, and look at their traffic problems. Only made them worse.

[@raymondmckay3237]

That motel on the left in the thumbnail was named the notel motel in the 70s and 80s with hourly rates and C.C.T.V.

[@NickCC23]

What? No john Lennon?

[@lorriescow1799]

Oh, yeah, don't forget the rats that the city is infested with!

[@carriep5483]

Go downtown. Disgusting. Becoming Portland.

[@raybitney2630]

Honestly Eugene suck to live in and drive in

[@kristianberg4264]

I live here and completely concur, it’s a shit hole.

[@nickc8863]

Agreed.. I fucking hate this town..

@@nickc8863 - Couldn’t agree more, and I’m a gay man, not the twin to live in at all. Lol

[@nickc8863]

@@kristianberg4264 isn't it wild how a city that has a reputation for being "inclusive" and "tolerant of people's beliefs & lifestyles" is anything but those things? I can't wait to move away from here.

[@kristianberg4264]

@@nickc8863 - Yes, it is all smoke and mirrors here for sure. I had moved away for a number of years, and quite surprised to move back and find it even less tolerant. I now, wish I could move away as well, it’s miserable here.

[@carsonbraton5325]

Honestly, who wouldn’t want to live near mountains, volcanoes and the ocean. Plus the weather west of the cascades is easy to manage year round

[@charlesstingley6319]

Its been 98 and humid lately!!

[@1Vesta1]

Constant rain most of the year...dealing with mold...smoke from forest fires most of the summer and the valley has the worst pollen in the US.

[@nancyingram966]

As per the title. you traveled on all but OR-99. Just saying.
