Without an exhaust brake, what is the best route from LA to San Francisco? I-5 over the Grapevine or 101 up the coast (1/2 hour longer)?

We have an exhaust break now, but not 2 years ago when we came up HWY 101. As others have said....options.... Straight shot with "no small towns" to stop or slow down in, then I-5. If you have the time and want to see/drive past (on the edge) the small towns, then 101 is the answer. BTW, if going to SF then you will eventually have to go West somewhere and I do not see where that saves time.
I-5 is such a straight shot, that there is lots of drivers on there AND they are not necessarily willing to obey the speed limits or drive with caution. They like to speed and weave at the same time. Ask us how we know!
