Nice drive, Portland has to be the greenest US city I've seen!

It is very green, but it was also filmed just as the leaves had bloomed in the trees which made it greener.

The drive starts in Vancouver, WA (not to be confused with Vancouver, BC, Canada, even though I simply call it just "Vancouver") and that northern neighboring satellite city of Portland, OR is older (1825) than the other Vancouver (1886) we usually know and they're both named after George Vancouver, an English explorer.

At 2:50 , you can notice a ramp stub or ghost ramp that would have connected to Interstate 205. I-205, The Rose City Freeway, was the proposed freeway that would’ve connected I-405 and I-5 to I-205, the Veterans Memorial Highway. But after a lot of push-back and revolts, the project was canceled.

This freeway is never not congested

So far, your Portland videos have been really great. Did you also made a video between Portland & Salem too, as I think it'd be cool to see this. I-5 throught the Willamette valley looks like a great drive overall. Also in Quebec, storms didn't say their last words, as throught the St-Lawrence valley, with an estimation of 50 to 75mm of rain felt & some thunderstorms north of Montreal. Effectively, despite being rare, Thunderstorms are effectively possible in Quebec in april. As such, some rivers may overflowing their banks, which is fairly common of that time of year. But still, hopefully they won't cause massive floods like in Charlevoix back last year, where 2 volunteers firefighters died while trying to evacuate a residence in St-Urbain.

Great drive! On your earlier I-290 and I-88 video, you stated that I-88 is known as Chicago-Kansas City Expressway. While that's kinda true, are you not aware that you didn't see the Illinois Route 110 and Missouri Route 110 with the "CKC" logo on the top of shield where it follows I-290 from Chicago Loop and then follows I-88 for entire length and goes on different overlapping route in Illinois and Missouri until reaches Kansas City? The reason why you said I-88 doesn't go to Kansas City because you didn't see the Illinois Route 110 with the "CKC" logo on the top of the shield.

I am aware of the 110 designation. I still think it’s silly to call interstate 88 the Chicago-Kansas City Expressway. Thanks for the comment.
