Route from Kansas City to Delaware.

We have a wedding coming up and would rather take the motorhome rather than the trailer. Unfortunately the route I have taken once in PA on the turnpike is more large ups and downs that I’d like. Anyone know of a flat(yet) route that won’t kill the old girl?

I'm from South Pennsylvania. I don't think you'll find a flat route through Western PA, or West Virginia.

You'd have to go way out of your way to avoid the Appalachians. Maybe work your way down to Knoxville TN and pick up 81 east of there, but that's WAY out of your way.

If I were you I'd run 70 to 79 in Washington, PA, down to 68 East below Morgantown, WV, over to Hancock MD where you pick up 70 again and head over to Frederick MD and beyond. This is the route I take going out to Jackson Center.

But it ain't flat

She has made the trek between Phoenix and flagstaff a couple times but that almost was the end… might just have to pull the trailer instead. Ugh…
