If you like diagonal, move to St. Louis. You won't know where the hell you're going, but at least the sun won't be in your eyes.

On the other hand, I70 before and after...

But Rainman, that won't work. Nope, not at all.


You see, the sun is to our south all the time so those going SE and SW would STILL have problems with the sun. You just have to keep moving in a basically northward direction or avoid driving at certain times of the day. Oh, I know! Night time driving only! You never have to worry about your visors or sunglasses that way!

Hmm, traffic in Atlanta is going to be a bear. We might need to make some changes.

And I guess that Chicago-Albuquerque highway should go all the way to Tucson.

Which do you think would be a more fun drive? Yes, that's right. The new system.

Ok fixed that and added Sacramento to Phoenix via Las Vegas!!

If you want to have fun, take the highways, if you want to get somewhere fast, take the Interstate.

When I lived in South Dakota, we were traveling to the West Coast about once every three months, interstate 80 across Nebraska and Wyoming to Salt Lake City. We discovered the first time that in order to make the best use of the sun in the rearview mirror was to leave about two hours before sunset, so we could go down I-29 to Omaha, and head west on I-80 at dusk and drive all night across Nebraska and Wyoming.
Worked for me when I was younger, and we could drive for 24 hours straight.

Wow, North Dakota is really getting screwed in this deal.

Wow, I knew Hydrae was smarter than Rain Man!

Tallahasse to Des Moines to Bismark

Bullshit. If you're not going to bend the line for Omaha you sure as hell better not do it for Des Moines.

Des Moines >> Omaha.

Omaha has one of the top two zoo's in the US, Des Moines is eh, well, an annoying spot to try to get through on my way to MN. And the name is like French, blech.

Tunnels, Rain Man. Tunnels.

I bent the line for Bismark ;)
