Kennebunkport, Maine to Tallahassee, Florida
What is the best route?

If you go as far South as Tifton on 75 you might as well stay on 75 to I10. No big city traffic anywhere along that stretch once you are south of Atlanta and Macon. 75 from Knoxville to past Macon can often be bumper to bumper depending on time of day and day of week. If I overnight near Knoxville I leave about 9am which avoids rush hour near Atlanta and south from there. If heading to the panhandle I prefer heading to Birmingham instead of Atlanta. That way you connect with I10 West of Tallahassee with less stress.
Also, I like 101 to Manchester, NH then north to Concord to pick up 9 west to Brattleboro. From there I have used 7 to Troy but not with my big rig. I like 91 south from Brattleboro to 90 or 84 or 87 to 287 to 78 to 81. I travel to/from Fla and Boothbay every year. I have used all the usual routes over the years and the only one I totally hate is 95 from the Boston area to Richmond. They all have plusses and minuses, and drive times and mileage are surprisingly similar.
