| I-40 sucks through West Memphis and continues on.
Went to Oklahoma with my brother a few years back and it's like it's not paved but made out of concrete blocks. Every 20 feet you hit a small bump like a seam or crease. You spend miles hearing bump-bump.....bump-bump......bump-bump......bump-bump......bump-bump....... and feeling the car/truck slightly bounce. More annoying than anything else. |

We drive to NOLA quite a bit. I still can't believe they have that stretch of highway running through Alabama that's still down to one lane for like 10 miles. | |

Pig trail is a fun ride. Motorcycle or sports car. | |

| NW Arkansas and the Ozarks are beautiful. SE Arkansas between Little Rock and Memphis: not so much.
