Will be leaving Dallas for Birmingham on or about Nov 3rd. Any sugestions on avoiding interstates? I-20 to I-59 is interstate route but I don't want to use it. Thanks,Ed

Use Google maps and select avoid highways. Google maps will give you three different routes to chose from.

we love going to huntsville and guntersville. i refuse to put my coach on i20 in misissippi, it will create some new rattles. we plan our trip up and across so we can come down on i 65. i65 to birmingham is good also.

The last time we were on that section of I-20 around Jackson we lost one of the chrome hub covers on the rear axle and it jared the rear camer wires loose.

We have tried Rt 84 that runs east/west just south of I-20. Then you can get on I-59 to Meridian. If you don't mind running on 2 lane roads, its not a bad route. I-59 is in good shape. The last time we were on it was last year.
