Go across Louisiana on I-20. If there is a smooth road between I-20 and I-10 I haven't found it yet. Good Luck. We just got back from Sanibel.

Mississippi and Alabama and Florida roads are fine.
on't know about Texas and Louisiana.
I 10 goes through a tunnel, under Mobile Bay
at Mobile......NO restrictions.........keep up
your speed best you can for the climb out of it.

P M me if you want discussion about the routes
from Pensacola to Destin....choice of 3 or 4.

What road between I-10 and I-20 in Mississippi or Alabama is smooth? I haven't found it yet.

Hwy 49 and Hwy 98 between Jackson and Mobile is not a smooth road. Find another route. I drove it last month, I know.
Sorry OP. I'll ask this question in a post of my own.

I drove this route last year. I20 to Shreveport, I49 to Lafayette, I10 to Baton Rouge, I12 to Slidell, I10 to Destin. Quick and easy!

Why would anyone drive I-20 across La, when I-49 is a ribbon of silk to I-10 and headed to fl?
