Stay away from Montgomery, Alabama. If you are traveling I65, you will probably NOT be able to get over 35 mph, the roads are horrible. Avoid Montgomery! Detour, go California if you if have to! You'll kick yourself if you drive through Montgomery! You'll get beat to death and your camper will shake every thing loose!
By-pass it, go around it, take some other roads, but avoid Montgomery!
Oh boy! You hit my worst nerve, my worst driving experience ever mentioning that city! And I thought Indiana interstates were horrible!
disagree. when my mom was alive I traveled from Chicago to SW Florida in a 35ft Class A pulling a Jeep wrangler at least once a year, the last trip in December 2013. combined length was roughly 55-feet.
my route was I-65 south from Nashville to I-85 in Montgomery then to US231 thru Troy, Ozark and Dothan. The interstates thru Montgomery were no better or worse than any I've been on. I always planned to overnight in Dothan which is roughly 2+ hours from Montgomery. I'd normally roll into Dothan around 6pm so that means I'd be hitting Montgomery between 3p and 4p. traffic was there but it usually flowed at the posted speed limits.
