Driving from NY to Disney to beat the storm!!

We jump in the car on Friday and drive to Disney because we fear our Sunday flight will be cancelled. Nothing shall deter the family from getting to the see the Mouse!!

How was that thing on gas??

We are doing the drive from Massachusetts in 4 weeks. We always fly, so this will be our first long distance road trip. Splitting up 2 days of travel, any advice?

If I’m in my motorhome I take I-95 because it’s flat and smooth. If I’m in my car then I like to take 81 south through Roanoke. It takes you through the Blue Ridge Mountains it is a much more scenic route. If you compare both routes I 95 is a little shorter but your chances of hitting traffic on I-95 is much greater. When I take 81 I never hit the brakes. In the end I have gotten to Florida faster taking 81 then I 95 because I did not get caught up in Washington DC traffic. I hope this makes sense. 🤣

how long of a trip?

[@OffKilterRV]

We split the trip up into two days total driving time about 22 hours. We do normally fly but we have made that drive many times before. 😀
