Going to Maine for the first time.

That congestion on 95 will make ya just as slow

 

Right at the exit for Fairfield off 95

 

Maybe I’m day dreaming. I’ve ran both corridors, 81 is heavily congested. Sometimes it is bumper to bumper up from green castle to Carlisle going north for just congestion. If you time either right it’s no problem. Guess it’s just personal preference.

 

I've never once been on 95 and it wasnt congested. Even in the middle of the night it can be. As stated above rather be slow due to mountains than the idiots on 95 especially getting north of Virginia.

 

I think this is the most important advice, and I think the op is ignoring it.

 

Because Maine has some beautiful scenery. I live in New Hampshire, and it’s pretty here too, but the Maine coast will literally take your breath away. Some of those small coastal towns are totally amazing.

Also like has been said if you see a moose you better get slowed way down. They won’t just get out of the way. I’ve seen the whole highway at a standstill while a cow moose wandered down the yellow line totally unconcerned about us.

 

Your biggest problem is gonna be getting a flatbed load out of there in the winter that pays more than .79 CPM….
