One thing that might help in Salt Lake City - I-80 does go up over a mountain east of the city. To avoid this, take I-215 north to I-15 north to I-84 east back to I-80. I-84 goes through a canyon...

Welcome to RTA!
The fastest route is mostly Interstate and only involves narrow mountain roads at the beginning. Take CA-36 to Susanville, then US-395 to Reno, then I-80 the rest of the way. If...
Worse. It's "only" $6.70 at Panamint Springs.
You think that's bad, look at this...........

What are you paying now - about $8 US for a US gallon?
I can still buy gas here for $3.82 at Walmart.
That's also a good alternative - follow my directions from Columbus. No eastbound toll at the Delaware Water Gap. Kansas does still take cash.
Take the I-270 bypass around the NW side of...
I have some issues with the latter part of Buck's route recommendation. As long as you don't mind the steep tolls on the PA Turnpike and points east, do not go through Philadelphia, stay on the...
You can't avoid all winding roads, but Buck's route avoids all 2 lane roads. You do have to go over the Siskiyous on I-5 and Lookout Pass on I-90. I've driven that route and it's all relatively...
US-395 is multilane all the way from I-82 to I-90. It's a city street with traffic lights through Kennewick, then near-freeway quality from there to I-90.
I would recommend I-94/I-39/I-74/I-57/I-24/I-75. You need THREE FULL DAYS to do this safely unless you have 3 or more experienced drivers. You may have traffic issues in Nashville and Tampa and you...
You can't avoid mountains, but the almost all Interstate route that Dave suggested would be your best bet. The only non-Interstate is US-93 between Wells and Twin Falls, and it's not particularly...
Welcome back!
Will you be driving back from Knoxville to DC, or dropping the car and flying?
That's if you have a transponder. Without one, Pay by Plate rate is $5.50, and you have 14 days after the travel to log into the pay by plate system at getipass.com with your plate number and credit...
Welcome to RTA!
There's nothing really unsafe about I-80. The only reason I'd possibly consider an alternate is to avoid tolls in IL on I-88 and I-39. To avoid those and still stay on...
If you want to see Rushmore and Colorado, I think it would make sense to fly into Denver and do a "loop" trip.
Black Hills to Glacier is at least a day and a half no matter which way you go.
What you could do on day 21 is leave Kansas City sometime in the afternoon and drive a few hours to spend the night somewhere between there and St. Louis.
Looks good now!
Southwest doesn't service Bangor. They do service Albany, Hartford, Manchester, Portland, Providence, Rochester, Syracuse, and Logan. If you are going to Cooperstown anyway, Albany would be very...
The photos in your last post are not visible. My primary browser is Vivaldi (based on Chromium) and all I can see is a circle with a dash in it in the middle of a blank square. Cleared cache and...
No problem.
3 days via I-94 to I-90. Overnights as recommended by AZBuck. Have a 4th day available in case you do encounter adverse conditions. Not terribly likely in mid-April but is possible....
Welcome back! How did your 2017 trip go? You never posted back.
The route you have chosen is the fastest/shortest route. It's about 750 miles so an overnight stop would be advised, Charleston WV...
That may be wise with what's going on right now. Take I-5 to CA-46 to CA-99 to CA-58 to I-40. You can take US-287 from Amarillo to Dallas, it's almost Interstate quality. However, this does add...
Billy, they are driving back to STL, no round trip air.
