If they did something like Ontario, I'd be willing to drive that distance. Victorville is well over an hour away from the L.A. area, and if there is afternoon traffic, it could be well over two hours.

Yeah, I seriously doubt it will have enough ridership to ever complete the whole project. They've been debating that project here in Utah for quite some time. Too many scenic areas could be destroyed by this project incl. the I-15 corridor that runs thru Kolob Canyon area where I live.
