Kansas 75 or 77 best?

Headed from Lincoln, NE to Chanute, KS. Which route is best for big rigs? Thanks!

    My preference, 77 south out of Lincoln to Marysville, KS, US 36 East to US 75, South to Chanute. We've traveled both routes many times and find 75 to be the best route for your intended direction. Through Topeka, no problem-I70W/470 bypass then the Burlingame exit (US 75). I would take our "big rig" this way if headed to Chanute.
  • 77 is a good road with not much traffic. 75 is also a pretty good road but you have to go through Topeka, not really a big deal at all but I guess 77 - 54- 75- 39 is a little bit easier and all just open Kansas country.
