Route from Roswell to fort stockton
I have heard that 285 out of Carlsbad is bad would 18 be a better route down to fort Stockton? Heading to Florida? Would appreciate a quick response if anyone has it? Thanks

I just did the trip last week on 285 from Ft. Stockton to Carlsbad and further northeast to Hobbs to get to a tire shop. Only cost me $175 for the 2 new tires on my toad because the one that was flat/cut was under a tire warranty from Discount Tire. Then there was the extra 5 hours and an extra 160 miles The road is full of craters; you can't even call them pot holes they are so big. The service writer at Walmart Carlsbad told me we were lucky to only have 1 tire go down and having a spare.
I used that road as a justification to my wife for the TPMS that we bought before taking off on our trip.
