Yep, C&D does quite a few tests here.

We've resurfaced all the major roads in HH. Nothing but smooth asphalt now.

I don't blame you for not missing the Columbus freeways. They stink. And I hate driving in snow. I'm envious of you there.
Yeah, we still have rusty cars here too. Hmmm... maybe I should move to Texas

I'll admit that it gets a bit more interesting to the north. I've driven Ocala to JAX & JAX to Gainesville on occasion. And been thru Waldo, of course. For east/west I often use 60 from Yeehaw Junction to Brandon, which I am sure you know. Still pretty straight, but it beats any freeway & the mind-numbing alley.

It always amazes me seeing the number of 'death' crosses beside straight, flat roads in Florida.

Can't say I have one iota of jealousy for those living in Florida. And I doubt they are jealous of me. That's cool.... cause I'd like to keep my well-kept secret with the world's greatest curvy roads and awesome convertible weather
I thought everybody from Ohio was down here in the winter learning how to drive
