25E Corbin Kentucky to I-81 and back
Has anyone traveled this route? Looking for other alternatives traveling I-75 to interstate 81. I believe there is a tunnel on this route as well. What would the clearance be width as well as height? ...

Coming back West out of Duffield there is one climb that will test your fortitude. My Dodge Ram with a 8.5k fiver would drop to about 30 MPH at the top if I hit it at 65 on the bottom. The Volvo with an 18.5k fiver climbs it in 9th gear (out of 10) with the cruise set at 55!
No clearance problems in the tunnel with a big rig, but you should have your propane shut off.

Was you Dodge Ram 1500 or 2500, gas or diesel.
What gear were you pulling in?
How does the climb compare to some of them on I-40 and I-26 coming from Cherokee to Wytheville.
