Default We have taken that route before

As a former resident of Kansas, have taken I-70 to both ends coast to coast. I would not even consider it during winter. During the summer, if a motorhome towing a car, I would disconnect and drive the car over the mountain passes. Your cooling system and brakes need to be in top shape on both the toad and the motorhome. The Eisenhower Tunnel is always exciting for me because I feel like I am really in the mountains at that point. Downshift and hang on going down and do not overheat the brakes.
