    Roads are clear on i80 it's summer. Only thing that closes it are ####### that shouldnt be on the road. If your coming from i70 from Kansas hit e470 around Denver to N i25 it's fast but it's a toll. No dealing with city traffic. They'll send you a bill in the mail, no stopping, use your license plate, probably less then 40.00 bucks I'm not sure. Then head north to Ft Collins jump west thru ft Collins on hwy 14 then jump on hwy 287 to Laramie to I80. Scales in FT Collins closed and closed on 287 after midnight. With a truck able to do 75mph probably take 8hrs or less from Denver. I've toon both routes 70 or 80 this way is always faster. I run this every night.

    Exactly how I would go. All major interstates, one of the shortest ways, no huge hills, 80 across Nebraska is a breeze
