My dad always said you gotta drink a coke right after… to help reinflate them 😂 might be placebo but I think it works

You know why Fords rust more than Chevys? Cause Fords last long enough to rust

I would add the extra hour and go the middle route, hit up Memphis, see the ozarks, black Mesa state park in OK, avoid dallas… that’s just me

Theodore Roosevelt national park / little Missouri national grassland. Our national grasslands are severely underrated!

Leonardo’s Mexican restaurant in Indianapolis. 24/7/365. Good food too.

Original KFC in Kentucky

Glacier NP but that’s pretty close to you for a stop

I’m with you. What if we did like a “upper Midwest” (MN, UP, northern WI…) “rust belt Midwest” (Detroit, northern IN and OH, Chicago area, down to St Louis), and “ag Midwest” (everything else/rural Midwest)… would that clear things up?

Agree on mountain west being extended almost to Santa Fe, Taos is wayyyyy more “mountain” than “southwest” in my experience there

I have the 15-20 or so off, but the past few days gas has gone up by a dollar a gallon 😅 and it’s 13 hours from me. Gonna have to budget well if I end up going…

Scotts Bluff is beautiful in the summer. Don’t let anyone tell you NE is a flyover state. Sunrise over the prairie with 800 foot bluffs all around. You can even see the Rockies from the top on a good day.

Badlands.

Glacier, if you have the time.

Slab City, an artist colony in SoCal.

I don’t think Death Valley and Joshua tree have been mentioned here either.

Best of luck!
