Texas to Portland, ME
I am looking for suggestions in planning a route from central Texas to Portland, Me. I would like to avoid large cities and too many toll roads. Our schedule allows us 5 days to get there. Thanks

You pay to cross the Hudson River in NY and you pay for 12 miles on the Mass Turnpike plus about 70 miles of I-95 in ME.
I-20, I-59, I-75, I-40 then above might be quicker depending on where you are in TX.
I have a place in the RGV and relatives in NH and have tried every route there is.
This is a pretty good route. I've travelled it dozens of times and there's nice scenery and traffic usually isn't too bad. Expect a lot of construction from Pennsylvania north.
