81 or 95?
Heading to Fla panhandle (Santa Rosa) from central MD in a few weeks, finalizing the route. Have taken 95 to Eastern Fla and other points North several times. 95 for me is a bit of a nightmare to star...

I too live in central MD and do not take the DC beltway any more. If I want to access 95 south I take 15 through Point of Rocks, Leesburg, Warrenton then 17 to Fredericksburg. To access 81 I take 340 and 7 to Winchester VA. The difference in mpg on 81 is more than offset by the ease of driving. I am all for the most enjoyable trip I can have. Personally I prefer 81.
Whatever you decide may you have a great journey.
Safe travels, Brenda
I am with you Brenda. 81 is a much nicer road, nicer views, less "city" traffic. 95 is stressful to me. The North half is rough and full of people late for their accidents. I don't like driving it in a car. Yeah I think 81 it is. Much smoother. And despite climbing the hills, some of the views are spectacular. FAR more relaxing.
