Your favorite and least favorite states for driving?

That's how I feel about I-70. Not 80 mph...but solid driving most of the year. Those toll roads through Kansas and OK are a pleasure to drive as well. I-94 through Michigan? Hate that road...it's enough to rattle your teeth out of your noggin and the traffic is insane. If fact, my home is 18 miles north of I-94 (off U.S. 131) and I bite the fuel and toll costs and drive I-80 to the U.S. 131 exit and head north on a two lane 54 miles. It changes to freeway 26 miles in northbound...but I'm good with that. It also allows me to bypass a weigh station and it only costs me $23. ...Money well spent...especially in the winter when too many four wheelers with 4x4 think they can traverse that road (I-94) at 60-70 mph and find out they can't.

 

Least favorite states to run are Kansas, Nebraska, certain parts of Montana, I-10

Favorites are Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Western Montana, Western Colorado.

I truly enjoy driving in the crazy snow stroms up north and even like putting chains on.

 

I mostly run Midwest, Great Plains, upper south, Texas, and Oklahoma.
Favorite: Illinois. Lot's of rest stops, truck stops, Walmart's and eating places with actual truck parking. Interstates that go everywhere and connect everything. Mostly flat, straight, easy on the fuel mileage, and not in horrible condition like it's Indiana neighbor. I do like Indian's monstrous, guaranteed-to-find-a-spot-anytime rest areas along I-70.
I like the wide-open peacefulness of the Plains states. I didn't want to leave South Dakota once I got there. If there had been a blizzard, that thought may have changed.
Least liked: Texas. Interstate highways are in decent shape, but I don't like their U.S. and state highways. No potholes, but they're wavy like being on an ocean. I hate on/off ramps that connect to frontage roads. They don't have nearly enough truck stops and rest areas for the amount of traffic they have. Too many of the truck stops they do have are run down and neglected. Even the newer ones can look pretty rough. Lot's of abandonment, which seems odd for a state that's growing by leaps and bounds. Don't even get me started on Houston. For a "newer"-style city, the streets often aren't nearly wide enough to keep from having to jump curbs when turning.
One redeeming quality is that good Mexican food is not hard to find there.
Sorry, Texans. Hope you don't take it too personally. I lived there for a while and know it's not all bad, but driving a truck there just isn't my thing.

 

I'll run anywhere if the money is right..


My favorites would be any southern state (except Florida) and the midwest.

Least favorite would be Kali, the northwestern states, and anywhere in New England..



I'm at a point in my driving career where I can pick and choose where I go, and I do..

 

Where's Kali?

 

I personally like driving all the states with no havy trafic and good flat roads like KS,I70 east of Denver CO,MO,TX,TN,NE i hate driving in Indiana terrible roads and lots of speed traps,dislike Cali OR WA and east coast NY NJ ,however money always talks
