Just traveled this route towing a 26 foot fifth wheeler with my 1988 GMC 1/2 ton! A beautiful drive and we had no problems except for a very strong headwind on 191. It is a gradual uphill all the way from SLC to Moab. The worst part of the whole trip was I15 in SLC! Apparently all the money goes in to temples and not highway repair! TERRIBLE road conditions in SLC that nearly shook our trailer too pieces!

Over half of the route between Spanish Fork and Price is multi lane. Road does get a little twisty on the downhill coming in to Price.

There is no reason whatsoever to go down to Cove Fort and take I-70 directly from I-15.

Agreed
Fine road, much commercial traffic on that route, no reason to avoid it

Agreed also, We took the Spanish Fork through Price to Green River to Moab route last year (end of March) and had no problems or holdups.. Just got a bit sad cause I had no real reason to use the exhaust brake yet on my new to me Dirtymax. he he

Have not done routes 6/191, but I do know that routes 28/89 between Nephi and I70 is an easy drive with no grades.
