chicago area routing help
Need a little advice from the group. We are near Fergus Falls, MN on our way from home in Alaska to New England for the fall season. Looking at the map there is a lot of foolishness going thru Chicago...

This is the way I have gone when I don't want to mess with all the Chicago traffic and all the tolls. I have taken this way with my TT and my semi many, many times...
I 90 to IL then pick up I 39 south to I 80 into I 94 east to highway 2 east pick up 20east all the way to the Ohio line 49 south to 6 east around Sandusky 2 east to Free I90 east through the rest of Ohio Through PA....I86 east (they have repaired most all of it ) through southern NY to Binghamton, NY I 81 north (or stay on 81 to NY17 TO I 84 EAST TO CT then I 90 mass pike ) to I 88 N/E to the NY Thruway and into the Mass Pike.
The only toll will be a small one south of Chicago on I 80 and from Schenectady, NY on the NY thruway and then the Mass pike. Sounds complicated but it is a good way to go to avoid tolls and traffic. I have been running across that way since the early 90's Some 2 lane some 4 lane.
