I'll bow in shame and take the non-road road trip. H3 is easy and seems pleasant. I-86 and I-26 don't seem that compelling, and A1 ends in the middle of nowhere.

Point of order, if you will, Mr. Chairman.
I'm sorry, I have a hard time considering any road an "interstate" if it starts and ends in the same frackin' state. That's an intrastate highway, not an interstate highway. I cede my time back to the gentleman from Colorado. |

I picked I-26. I've never been that way and I think it would be a beautiful drive. You get to cross the Eastern Continental Divide (which I have never heard of) a couple of mountain ranges and North Carolinas highest bridge.
