.... my favourite drive of all time was the 8 hours I spent driving from Monument Valley, via Hanksville in Utah, then down the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument to Bryce Canyon.
I did that with friends in my '68 Mustang convertible about 20 years ago and agree that it is quite spectacular.  The long route into Yosemite from the 'wrong' side is not bad either at dawn with the sunrise.  Considering many of the US roads are quite boring (i.e. route 66) the mountains make up for it.

For roads to drive my favourite is Route 1, from San Francisco (leave 101 at Sausalito), all the way up to Jenner (on the Russian River). I am sure it is equally beautiful further north, but that is as far as I got. Goes all the way to Leggett, where it joins the 101 again.
Oh yes, there are some lovely sections there. Stayed a couple of nights at Mendocino. Beautiful place.

Route 1 South from SF is not too shabby either, but a different kind of scenery, more barren and remote.
