Going West

[MainelyUS]

We are planning an early summer trip to Johnstown OH than onto Ames, IA from western Mass.
What would be your choice I90 through NY or I 80 through PA (only 11 miles difference to Johnstown)? Looking for any insights you have on I90 vs I80 . We will be hauling a 5er on this trip. Any recommended CGs along the way?

Thanks for your inputs
Happy Trails

Haven’t done it in 40 years but you used to be able to stop And mine herkimer diamonds in places around herkimer ny.

My daughter lives outside of Boston and we are in Toledo, oh. Have driven a couple of times once pulling at TT. Other than crossing the Berkshires there is not much of elevation issues on I-90. I-80 has a couple of longer grades, but still nothing really difficult. Both a good roads, but my preference is I-90. We stopped in a KOA outside of Rochester for an overnight when we came across with the TT.

Just drove I 80 last summer from just above State College Pa. and it was a decent drive, just remember 90 in NY is a toll road, only 11 miles more I would choose 80 but I usually am charged a higher toll rate with our rig. I went that route for a change from the Pa turnpike.
