    more traffic east, more tolls east, less parking east, narrow roads where in some cities/towns you may go.

    Notheast is no fun. Old road not build for 53 trailers. Truck stops are old and run down also no parking

    I ran I-15 from Salt Lake to Los Angeles that has always been my favorite run, i do admit it gets quite boring after you've run it a dozen times but at least there's plenty of rest stops and truck stops along the way. We'd usually be loaded up for a Monday delivery on Saturday so i'd leave late Saturday evening drive as far as Nephi park up for the night, then run early morning down to Veva Los Vegas stop at Whisky Pete's right on the border camp there till around 11pm then run all the way into LA.

    If you time it right the Boston down to dc isn't half as bad as many here make it out to be. I used to do food service all around NYC-Philly-balt/dc with a 48. Just use that thing between your ears and you'll do good
     
    Dan.S Thanks this.

    I prefer the Midwest and West Coast. At least out West, there are very few if any idling laws. People seem a lot nicer too
