Orlando to Los Angeles Good Sam Trip Planner

Hello All, I'm going to the Orlando area to pick up a motorhome I purchased and I am driving it cross country back to Southern California. I am using the Good Sam trip planner and it is telling me to take the 10 most of the way. Where I'm getting confused is around Houston it is telling me to take the 45 towards Dallas then take the 20 until it joins the 10 again. Can anyone tell me why it is telling me to get off the 10 to go around Houston and San Antonio? Is it just traffic? Construction? Trying to save me 15 minutes on a 36 hour drive? Thanks
  • Just slightly off topic but that had to be the best deal in RV's in this century to drive it for the first time for 2500+ miles :)
  • Plugged it into Google Maps and it says to use I-10 the whole way...and it's about 2hr shorter, so unless there is some really bad construction on that route(Google Maps actually checks for this, so unlikely0, I doubt you would be better jumping up to I-20.
