ha there are plenty of douchey locals too. There are just too many people in general, at least on the front range. Breck is pretty awesome, you are gonna love it!

Iowa and Nebraska is 70. 80 goes through kansas. They both are awful, though. Bring entertainment.

First off, you going to CO, so 80 is your steez, I went 90 through MT when I went to Tahoe, huge detour, 100% worth it.

but, 4400 miles, top speed 105 (98 cherokee) Saw every plate but HI, 16 fill ups, broken fan belt, siezed AC pump, 2 Flat tires, over heated like 1000000000 times


Best 9 days of my life, seriously, driving west is the best time ever.

You should look at a map before correcting people. Theres a reason that the "largest truck stop" is the IOWA 80... Ive done the drive far too many times to get 70 & 80 mixed up. No hate, just saying.
