I'd rather run two NYC loads than one Chicago load. Atleast NYC is an adventure. Chicago just sucks.
What are the worst cities to drive in?

Birmingham, AL. It IS the butthole of the universe!

Once I've learned the roads I don't mind NY/NJ areas (but I stick to the turnpikes). But I usually turn the CB way down because of all the rude traffic there. It's odd how CB language is much worse in those areas.

It's not just the CB, they talk like that in person, too!

I can't believe somebody said Minneapolis. I'll be the second Minnesotan to call that one out. Minneapolis is easy. It's not even congested. Of course, it's my local major city so I always enjoy driving there.
When I'm in Chicago I just take up as much of the road as I can. When in Rome...
But I can't believe nobody said Laredo, Texas! This is the only city I really had a hard time with. Everybody speaks Spanish. Can't even call for directions. Nobody knows what's going on. Narrow roads. Building numbers are pretty much nonexistent. Somebody wrote Jesus on my trailer. I'm Buddhist. Mexican trucks sliding through intersections when the light turns red. Etc. -

I don't know about driving trucks in any particular city (yet) but, from my experience (which is reasonably broad), Cincinnati has some of the worst drivers on the planet and that, alone, makes this city a challenge.

How About Knoxville, Tn. I'd rather drive thru Newark, NJ
