<< I have the option of traveling from my home to Albany NY on the NYS Thruway
at 65 MPH for about 2 hours or driving Route 5 - traditional two lane road

for about 2.5 hours.
My concern is which type driving would be worse for the 1) the engine, 2)
the transmission, diff., etc. and 3) the overall car in general.

Ed-
If the car is any fun at all, take the route thru the countryside. Stop at
least once in every little town and village, drive around and look at the
houses. Talk to anyone who asks about your car. Buy something from a roadside
stand. It will take double the time on the thruway, but you'll live longer and
better.
Good driving,
