The worst stretch of I-95 runs from Richmond VA to north of Boston MA. If you can plan the day of the week and time of the day, it's manageable. Otherwise, look at I-81 as a slightly longer, but prettier ride with less traffic. Camp on!
We are just south of Fredericksburg now at camp. We have friends we're seeing today in Alexandria and heading out on the route you suggest here tomorrow. 95 to 17 to 81 to 84 to 91. Thank all of you for your inputs.
FYI. 95 from Savannah to south of Fredericksburg wasn't bad traffic wise. The roads were a little rough once we got into VA especially a few river bridges. GPS took us around Richmond on 295 (bypass??). What's that about? I wonder if that was wise or not, but it worked out for traffic.
