Touring Fleetwood next week then out west for the summer.
Best route from Elkhart towards Colorado Springs?
We prefer back roads when it makes sense.
90/80 probably only option West of ELkhart?
NO - NO on the I 80-90 option - first get south of Chicago - another No - No :)
Then try something like This - Hannibal and RT 36 then I-70 to Golden
Or if The Sprigs is the Destination try This - a Diagonal off RT 36
Once we cross the Mississippi we rarely use the I's - these are Two Good Routes.
When we had our Coach built we did 6-8 trips back and forth to Wakarusa - Once on I-80 - Never again - couple times on I-70 too many trucks - then we found RT 36 that has been the route of Choice for the last 10-12 times.
I just read the earlier posts - we have used a couple of the Wal*Marts along the Route some more than once and then either dump just before Golden or in Golden. .:)
Best of Luck,
