    Google maps usually doesn't account for traffic. I bet the 24-71-76 route is actually faster all things considered. Personally I prefer to drive on smaller highways and roads, less traffic and in most cases more to see. That's the route I'd take.

    This is what i came to post.
    The only issues are farm equipment and local yokels / county mounties, who feel 31 in a 30 is a damn good reason to lecture you on the virtues of going the speed limit. Not speaking from personal experience just saying. Sometimes they frown upon a couple on a touring mc doing 105 in a 55. How wacky is that?
