From Kansas City to the south east side of Washington DC

Looking for an easy route, scenery is nice, but wide roads and rest stops and walmarts are higher priorities this trip 🙂

the last time I took the 64 route there seemed to be lacking facilities in E KY and WVA. might have changed by now.

We used to use I-70 for many trips until we discovered the I-64 route.

why would he not just stay on 70? that is the route I have taken the last 30,000 trips I have made back to the midwest.

remember that you can catch 370 (NOT IS) at st. charles and avoid what is usually a mess on 70.

again thanks for the suggestions. we're familiar with the 64 to I-81, so will probably take that route. 🙂

After St. Louis, I prefer I-64 to I-81 to I-66. I-64 has less traffic and much better scenery than I-70.

Thank you for the quick reply 🙂

From Kansas City, straight through on I-70. At Fredric, MD, take 270 straight to Washington D.C. Can't get any more direct than that.
