Thanks for the advice, I go to Merlefest every year in Wilksboro, and have always gone I40 through Asheville. Some friends have said that the Johnson city route was tough on rv's, but it looks like a shorter run. Is it all four lane.
I assume that you mean from Johnson City to Boone by 321 and not going back on I26 to Asheville, which would make no sense coming from Knoxville since you could take 40 from there. If by 321, no it is not 4 lane. After Hampton on, majority is 2 lane, at least to Boone. Don't know what kind of pulling rig or weight you are towing, but there are some good climbs that way.
My bad, thought he was asking about I26...I knew he was taking 321, it does have some mountainous 2 lane road to travel, thus the reason I too asked him what he was towing.
To the OP, you may want to pose this question on the "Roads and Routes" forum, or have Moderator move it to that section....May get some more insight as to what other suggestions there might be...I've never towed 321, so can't speak of that, just got the impression that you had...my apologies if I misunderstood..
