Wow! That would definitely be an interesting drive not for the timid or unprepared. ---

I too think that would be a great drive. I do not do ‘primitive camping (yes that is the term for tent camping) but at a 130 miles would do a one day drive. I lived for four years in the Mojave, no where near as colorful as the Sonora and never could get my wife to go to Death Valley. Also reminded me at one time almost every waiting room had copies of ‘Arizona Highways’ along with five year old ‘’National Geographics’.
