I-55 at Memphis

We're planning a trip from AR to MS. I saw on a video of some people complaining about I-55 at Memphis recently being so bad it shook apart their camper. They were also complaining about lots of things sooooo...... Going we would go south through Memphis and then get off 55 pretty quick for 22, but coming back we would be coming straight north on I-55 and go through Memphis going north. Has anyone been on this part of the Interstate and give advice? Thanks

    We go thru Memphis several times a year. We quit taking I-55 thru the city. Usually more congested. 1 crash and it can get plugged quickly.
    We hop on I-40 in W. Memphis then stay on it until it connects back up with I-55 on the south side. Traffic seems to flow easier, roadway better, and is the same distance as staying on I-55.
