Ohio to Florida on I 75. Steep grades?
We will be going to Florida via I75. I'm wondering if there are any steep downhill grades,that I may encounter along the trip. Especially in the mountains. Any advise?

Lookout Mountain
The summit, called "High Point", is located just east of Thompsonville in Walker County, Georgia, with an elevation of 2,392 feet above sea level. :C
I took I-65 to I-75 puts you right smack in the middle of it. I think the elevation at that point is less than at the summit but a 7-1/2% grade is nothing to just write off about when driving a MH towing. IMHO, JMHO!
Looks like you cam across 24 from 65 to 75 which would have put you on the steep grade. The OP is coming down 75 and will not be on 24 and will not see the grade which you are referring. The steepest grade 75 has at Jellico is 5% one direction for 5 miles and 4% the other direction.
