Has anyone taken 6 south west around Houston? Looking at different routes from Mich to Rockport TX.

TX6/FM1960 used to be a country highway. It is heavily developed today and runs through highly commercialized areas. You'll find that the segment from I-45 west and south to the Southwest Freeway (US59S) is multiple lanes with heavy traffic and stoplights every 3-4 blocks.

The easiest way (though not the cheapest) around Houston is the Beltway 8/Sam Houston Tollway option. Next is I-610 (loop). Third is just batten down the hatches and go straight through town. In any case, it's much easier if you time your trip through Houston for off-peak hours.

Avoid Huston altogether and use RT 77. Good road much better views.

Think we will do the 77 route. Thanks so much
