I95 or I84 to Epping ??
 
Ok my New England friends, should I take I95 or I84 to Epping this year?
Last year we took I84 and it really beat up my motorhome ... ,cracked a couple of storage compartment supports and broke the LP gas pipe!
Is the I95 route any better?....I'd rather pay more tolls than have to fix the motorhome again.
lets hear it.

Tom,
I am on 84 and 95 all the time. 84 is better than 95 and is shorter to Epping.

I'd recomend I84 to I90 to 290 to 495 to 125. We always stay off 95 in the NY NJ area,both for roads and traffic.

84 is the better way,i think the did some repaving of some sections since last year ,,95 can be a huge traffic nightmare at any 24hr period gmonde

You couldnt pay me enough to take 95. EVER!

I would rather leave a yard sale of parts up 287/87/84 than take any portion of 95!

Looks like it's I 84.....Thats the way we used to go years ago when we went there.
Vic, I go I 78 to I 287 to I 87 and get on I 84 at Newburg. ....took 7 hours last year from Allentown......Was'nt really looking to save any time , I don't think any of the routes are quicker than the other.....I just was looking for a better ride. ....I 84 in Connecticut was just plain terrable last year.

and you all don't have to pay a toll at tappan zee bridge toll (40.00)also take the 691 to 91 back to the 84 around Hartford.it's 3 miles longer but easier on the head.

But 95 is far worse, especially if you get in in one of their infamous and never ending road work areas. We used to take 95 to 287 but our first trip on the Mass pike (I-90) to 84 convinced us we'd never go back to 95 again.
