I should add that I've done the ends of I-80 -- Sacramento to Cheyenne, and
Illinois to NYC -- in the winter. That stretch across Wyoming is like
crossing the face of the moon...I've still never figured out who actually
lives there! If you're not towing, though, the wind's not too bad.
My evaluation of the Indiana-Ohio stretch could be flawed -- "rough" is
I-294 around Chicago, or I-295 in D.C....both of which compare favorably
only with roads with shell craters in them....
