285 heading north out of Pecos is the worst road on the planet - especially the NM part. It's so beat-up from the heavy rigs it's rough as all he!!, two-lane, and has heavy oil pipeline construction traffic. With the gas burn-off torches at the oil wells and the desolate scenery, it looks like something from a post-apocalyptic movie. The whole thing makes me embarrassed to admit I'm a native New Mexican.
