It looks pretty good, although a few of the sentences seem a little long. Here's a few comments: Thanks. &mdash; RJH (talk) 19:34, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
 * The history section doesn't cover the actual construction of I-5 and seems pretty brief. Compare to the GA article U.S. Route 66, for example.
 * Most of the notes section could be readily merged into the text, providing some content other than the general trip-report nature of most of the content. However, some of the notes will definitely need references.
 * How does I-5 compare with the other interstate freeways in the U.S.? Can that be mentioned in the text?
 * At the border with Mexico, does I-5 connect with a highway in that nation? I wasn't able to determine from the text.
