Wisconsin ouch! furthest I've driven east was partially into Montana. I've heard that the Montana & Dakota portion of I-90 is really boring.

I hate driving, i've done way too much for how young I am. In college Did catering, and my boss trusted me more than my peers, so I was always the first pick to send to the caters that were a 3 hr drive away. Seems like every saturday I was going to Moscow Idaho, or the Pasco/Richland/Kenewick or even halfway down into Idaho.

If there is a heaven, it involves a 4 block walk/bike ride to work, and an awesome network of trains & subways.... Wait, I've been there! That was my life in Osaka, Japan! Took me 3 minutes to bike to work, 2 if I didn't have to wait for any lights/traffic.

Yeah, I've done the drive several times:

-Milwaukee, WI to Portland, OR and back in a lowered 1998 Honda Civic
-Milwaukee, WI to Portland, OR one way in a lowered 2005 Scion xB
-Milwaukee, WI to Portland, OR one way in a Penske van with a Civic on a trialer
-Portland, OR to St. Paul, MN and back in a stock Suzuki SX4 (no cruise control).

It's long drive; I try to go a slightly different way each time.
