"I hope your car has good shocks..."
Past Dublin, 580 traffic isn't too bad. Sure, there is the standard out in the morning, in in the evening stickiness, but that is true of any populated area like Livermore. Shopping options are available and accessible from the highway, and there is even a downtown scene not far off. This is the road to Yosemite, to Kirkwood, and an alternate route to Tahoe.
The downside is that this is one of the most poorly-maintained stretches of freeway that I have ever scene. The bumps equate that of a dirt road, and can be felt by any driver at all times. It is absolutely a nightmare for all old car owners, and seems to stretch as far west as Dublin, and north and south on 680. What a mess.
However, unless you want to take back roads the whole way, there is no avoiding it for some trips...
