What do y’all got? I’m goin with 49 from Shreveport to Opelousas. There’s very few places to stop for gas and food. Also, the scenery is not that great aside from a few miles of hills and trees. My 2nd choice is 10 from LC to Lafayette.

Anywhere not over a bridge?

Louisiana’s most beautiful landscapes are not easily accessible

If you’re a fan of truck stop casinos, all of 49 is like a carnival midway.

I-49 from Shreveport to Alexandria ain't exactly the scenic route, either.

I-10 in Florida from Lake City to Jacksonville.

Sorry it’s not in Louisiana.

I 2nd this. I have a hunting camp off the Forest Hill exit that area sucks. I don’t see how people live up there.

There’s not many truck stops let alone gas stations between Shreveport and Alexandria. They just built a Loves in Boyce it’s nice. Besides that, 49 is horrible.

I-49 might be boring, but at least it’s clean. I’ll trade you I-610 for it.

I-10 all the way through Florida is pretty boring. I'm not sure if there is even a hill on the whole stretch that rises more than 5 feet.

Have you seen the grass in the median? It’s literally 6-8 foot tall in some spots. It looks like a 3rd world country on some stretches. Haha so embarassing

There's not in any in good enough condition to be "boring". At 80 mph a small pothole can kill everyone in your vehicle and multiples in other vehicles.

Risk of death kinda adds an edge to any stretch of highway! Thx LA politics!

LaPlace to Gonzales.

But it still beats 81 through Virginia, or driving across Gumpistan.
