Route 40 Columbus to St Louis
Is anyone familiar with this road? considering it as opposed to I-70 on our way to CO. Seems to go through some fairly populated areas.

Another option would be US 36. We traveled the section from north of St. Louis out most of the way through Kansas before heading south to go to Colorado Springs. If you do take 36 one benefit would be a free night of camping in Marysville KS. Look at it on Google. The city park is just south of 36 and has 30 and 50 amp hookups. We were tenting so I didn't look for a dump station so I wouldn't plan on that. They do take donations if you want to give.

Sorry, I answered off of the content in the post and not the name of the post. Going to St. Louis you are going to add a good bit of time by taking 40. Much lower speed limits and they will vary going into every little town. I would say if you feel the need for a break from the interstate jump off and slow down for a few miles on 40. The good thing is when you get tired of red lights and 35 mph you are not far from the next entrance to I-70.
