US 69 Thru North Texas - Oklahoma - Kansas
Starting planning next summer's trip. I need to get from North Texas to Kansas City area, and want to stay off Interstates and toll roads as much as possible. What is US 69 like from about Sherman, TX...

The stretch of US-69 between McAlester and I-40 has a severe case of heaving of the concrete slabs and the swelling of the joint material.
It is like running over a gravel road with all the pitching and bumping up and down. I avoid it whenever possible. Only use it when going to Lake Eufaula
Take US-75 north from Atoka to join I-40 at Pharoah. Or take the Indian Nation Turnpike up to I-40 at Henryetta and take US-62/75 up to near Tulsa. US-62/75 is a good stretch of road.
You can also go east and pick up US-59 or like we did in September heading from Canton, TX to Branson - US-271.
