Google map shows two routes from Montgomery: 1) south on 231 thru Dothan AL OR 2) east thru Columbus GA and south thru Albany GA. which is the easier route pulling 5th wheel? thanks

After years of running to TPA pretty much along this route we have come to prefer and are partial the Columbus 520/82 to Albany--- then GA 133 on the east side of Albany off US 19 (Doe Run, east side of Moultrie, Berlin, Morven) down to I-75 at Valdosta.Nice ride through cotton and peanut farms of south GA.
To us its a bit more direct than the Dothan/ I-10 alternative.The roads we've listed here are all great. The Columbus route seems a bit less hilly- there are a few small rolls from Ft Benning to Richland but nothing of significance).
We've run this route for 40 years- even before the 520 super slick was built. We've made the run down to central FL along this way with motorhomes (x3), TT's (x2), a TC and a fiver. We like the ability to hit the large commercial pull offs along the way in Columbus, Dawson, Albany, and Moultrie. Look for fresh pecans
