I-70 vs. I-80
April 17th, 2006 by NancyMy parents are planning to drive west, and they can take either I-70 or I-80.
I’ve driven both before, and they’re about the same to me, but here’s the thing: mom and pops want to stop for the night a few times on their epic trek, and I’d like for them to be able to stop in places that are nice and/or scenic.
So I’m trying to figure out which route to suggest.
There aren’t too many differences between the interstates. On I-70, they would see Missouri and Kansas; on I-80, it’d be Iowa and Nebraska. From I-70 they have access to St. Louis; from I-80 they could check out Chicago.
Do you see my dilemma?
If you prefer one to the other for any reason at all, please comment and let me know…
