Traveling the interstates

I assume that many RVers travel from point A to point B and run the interstates. Is there a 'cruising guide' that talks about favorite stops along I-75, I-40, I-95, I-10, etc?
Just checking.

There is a book entitled, "Road Trip USA" by Jamie Jensen.

You will probably find it on Amazon and could pick up a used copy very inexpensively.

I personally like to travel the US routes when possible. Enjoy the scenery better. I'll use the interstates if I need to get from point A to point B in a hurry.

Book, "Explore the next exit", by Next Exit pub. # 1 USA Interstate Exits - Hotels, Gas, Food - the Next EXIT

I have an addition which is a couple of years old, but it lists everything that is at each exit.

This book has been around for many years. It is written primarily for Snowbirds from the Midwest and Canada. Updated each year.

You can also look at the I95 exitguide online.

Great information.
I had no idea there were books devoted to Interstates and exits.
Thanks

The Next Exit book is good nation wide and a great guide to find RV ready gas stations, Walmart supercenters etc. However it just states what is 2 miles from the highway exit. It does not give any scenery or background info. Before GPS it was a must have book, and still is.
Road trip USA has lots of info about specific routes I.E route 50 or 66 etc. It is full of all kinds of good stuff and invites a drive on those roads.
Happy travel
Ellen

I'll second Ellen's comments. We bought the Next Exit when starting out but found we never used it because our GPS contained all of the info we were interested in and was much easier to access.

Good luck...
