Tracy, California.

All I know about it is when my friends car broke down there for two days. Sounded awful.

So yeah, a terrible place for a road trip destination.

Similarly, I'd also say Monroe, Louisiana. To quote an old B-movie from the 50's "There's nothing off of I-20!"

There's no unfortunately named landmarks, just unfortunate people in unfortunate towns.

Very accurate. But don't worry, there are worse places along the way!

it sounds so innocuous. What's wrong with it?

Can confirm, Tracy is in the middle of nowhere and there's nothing to do.
