On the 13th of Feb, I will be making a run up to the Baltimore area to pick up a Sonic. Mapquest has the route going from here in the Gulfport area up I-59, over & up I-81 all the way into Baltimore. It definetly looks like the "shortest" way, & travel shouldn't be too bad not pulling.....
After looking at the road atlas, I'm wondering if I may be better off coming back on I-95, down to I-20, & back over to MS. I'm just wondering if that route would be easier pulling a boat, & not having to go thru the mountains. I've not been past Knoxville, so I don't know how the travel is up past there on I-81. Anyone made that trip in the past that might be able to share a bit of insight on it?

Thanks, I can't wait to get up there to see it.....You definetly took very good care of it, & it shows from the pics.
I'm sure I'll be picking your brain from time to time on what needs to be done to it for maintenance...Thanks again for taking time out to chat with me about it, that definetly helped with the decision...

I had been doing ALOT of tire kicking since I sold the Donzi....I thought I was ready to make a deal on a bigger boat, & then this deal pops up, I didn't see where I could go wrong, it's alot of boat for the money, & it definetly was taken care of...I'm really looking forward to getting it....
Thanks
Thanks
