Other than that, it is quite flat. The drawbacks to I-90 are the tolls and lake-effect snow on the western end of NY. I would agree that it might be worth running the extra miles to avoid dealing with the border.
Got back a couple of hours ago. Left yesterday am 3.20 arrived via 90 route(didn't go through canada) at 4:15 PM 835 miles. Ohio has some nice roads and maybe the nicest rest area on the turnpike I have seen! Stayed the night in Cleveland then straight back.

A 100% drama free drive.

Ironically driving to Michigan seemed easier much than going to Atco or Englishtown!
