Mile-by-mile details
It has plenty of tips regarding which lane to stay in (for specific exits and interchanges); where the rest stops are, and how far to the next rest stop; which hotels, restaurants, and gas stations are at each exit; where to carefully watch your speed; and many local sight-seeing recommendations along with some history. I purchased this book for an upcoming trip to Florida.

I haven't made the drive yet, but it seems to have everything I expected - and then some.

One note: I probably wasn't paying attention when I bought it, but this book stops at the Florida border, so it is useful from southern Michigan through Georgia. There is another book by the same author - which I haven't purchased yet - that covers interstates in Florida.

help on I75
Since I bought a 5th wheel trailer along with a Diesel truck, this book helped me tremendeously. This is the most fantastic publication I ever came across. Milage can be pin-pointed to truck service centers. Since my truck has only 250 miles between fuel stops. With a 37 ft trailer you cannot visit regular small fuel stations. With I 75 book I can map to truck centers listed in the truckstops of America.

Think you know it all?
How wonderful!

If you are an information junkie like DH and myself you will totally enjoy the heck out of this book. About I-75? I assure you I've traveled this route many times and the last time I happened upon this book first. From what the "Florence Y'all" water tower really stood for originally to. . . "what is that stuff growing all over the place?" in Georgia. (thanks to the book we learned that it was Kudzu) The Radar Alerts were very helpful and sure enough 90% of the time there was a patrol car hidden exactly where the book stated. I also like the hotel recommendations and on the trip home we actually utilized one of those hotels and we were very impressed.

There were two things on our trip that I WOULD NOT be without if we were to drive again. . . . . . XM Satellite Radio and THIS BOOK.

Two thumbs up!.
