If you feel adventurous at the time, jump off I-90 at the Ill -WI border go west to US Hwy 51 south thru the city of S. Beloit, and Rockford, then jump back on I-39 south.

You are correct. I guess I was referencing being congested vs driving through IA.
Have made the 90E/39S trip many times and actually take that down and over to Indy vs 290/294 in Chicago for my KY trips. Have even done through Chi once. and only once.
I have confirmed with an IA friend that Hwy 218 in IA is pretty good and actually thinking of going the IA route now for a change of pace since I have already done my homework on Walmarts and Cracker Barrels along the way.
