After traveling from North Idaho to Florida towing our trailer---I have to say the Interstate highway system is horrible! Dwight Eisenhower would be ashamed of the way our states and federal governmen...

Well I can report on I20 in Louisiana, starts off on the west, very nicely with asphalt pavement, I'd give it a 8/10. Get to Slidell and if concrete lasts 20 years I'd estimate the Slidell concrete as nearing social security age, rated a zero. The rest followed suit, very bad patches interspersed with fairly good blacktop. On average a 3/10. Happily we are stopped 35 miles from Vicksburg.
The Louisiana Road Dept seems to be incapable of putting blacktop on top of the awful concrete surface for the whole 150 miles or so. Bridges are awful too, mostly concrete.
The eastern 70 miles or so of Texas I20 were all good in contrast.
