No one in their right mind would go through Flag and add two hours to your trip. I travel that road several times a year and a couple times towing a 33' 5er, yes it is not very exiting but neither are a lot of other roads. Pay attention to the speed limit and you wont get a speeding ticket

Ahhh, so I'm not in my right mind, because I've done something that you would never do.

If you think you won't get a speeding ticket just because you aren't speeding, you're not very familiar with the Arizona Highway Patrol. What's more, on long stretches of 93, the limit's only 55. There's also the delightful speed trap feature of the limit being dropped to 45 or lower when you enter the town limits, which are 4-5 miles outside any sign of civilization.

Actually, going via Flagstaff adds less time than that, because you can average 70 on the interstates very easily but you can't average more than about 50 (or less) on 93, because of the towns it goes through.
