US54-US400

On my return trip from the southwest (end of March) I am considering US54 from Vaughn, NM then connect with US400 into Wichita.

What is the road like and what about weather for this time of year?

Thanks

Nick
  • Last summer we took US-54 from Lake Ozark to Tucumcari. We skirted around Wichita using K-254 and I-235.
  • I took it back from southern New Mexico to central Missouri a couple of years ago in April. It was pretty nice traveling, not too much traffic and better scenery. I'd do it again.
  • good road. some 4 lane but most is 2 lane. good rv parks in Tucumcari, Guymon, Wichita. We own 1A. just north of Wichita so have done the trip many times.
  • US-54 and US-400 are one and the same from about Greensburg until you get East of Wichita 15 miles or so if my memory hasn't failed
  • US 54 runs right into Wichita. Why not stay on it? 54 isn't a bad road at all. Lots of 2 lane but truckers run it all the time. End of March shouldn't be too much of a worry about the weather.

    Don't know about 400 though.
