That's exactly what I do when I head out of IL. I'll take the back roads that travel at 55mph with very little slowing down. Just leaving from my house in the NW burbs of Chicago with my trailer would cost me about $15 one way. That's $30 for a round trip to WI or IA! Do that 2 or 3 trips a year and it's pricey. And the back roads are less crazy than interstate Hwy's.
So which back road would you suggest to get from your place to IN/MI?
Ya, that one is a little tougher. however it can be done. if you want to drive way out of the way! But to go east its best to leave very early in the a.m. and avoid traffic and take expressways and highways. but that is one direction where I give and pay a bit. it is still cheaper than going to IA or WI.
When I go east I take 290-94-80/294 and then the direction depends if I go to MI or IN. I have noticed that IN is a bit cheaper with their tolls.
