    yeah its a good road, theres a pilot TS in Muskogee , i believe the speed limit is 65? i know the interstates are 75 but i cant remember i was in a truck running 61 so i didnt pay alot of attention to speed limits lol

    other than that not alot of traffic the few times ive been through there, got one or 2 traffic lights in a couple small towns like muskogee...

    In Oklahoma it is 65 for the most part. The sections below Muskogee do have a 70 mph sections. It is 70 in TX.

    There are some major speed traps along the route in OK. Personally, though, if running from twin cities to TX, 35 is the best route. You have alot of two lane roads in Kansas to get over to it.

    The two lane you talking about coming out of kansas city to get to it? Gps always wants to route me down US71 to I44 to US69. The main reasons I havent taken it is because im very familliar with 35 all the way down, and wasnt sure what US75 is like coming into dallas.

    Not a good route to get through KC. It has been awhile for me there.

    The rest of the route is fine. Just the KC part.

    The two lane I referred to in Kansas is if you were to jump on 69 there.

    Yeah id take the loop around kansas city then take US-71 off the southside, but ive only been down about 20 miles on 71 so I know its 4 lane to there not sure what its like past there. But I always take 35 cause I know if I start in minnesota where ever I can usually make it to the TA right before the toll, otherwise I usually stop at the first travel plaza on 35 and thats a decent day, always parking at the ta and they have a gigantic lot at the first plaza.

    71 is 4 lane all the way down to 44. 44 west to 69. Many truckstops at Joplin area and of course Big Cabin OK. You would not be there in comparison to the stop you refer to in Kansas.
