TS6 Hop 3: Kutztown PA to College Park MD

Posted by on September 25, 2020
TS6 Hop 3

173 miles via Old US 22, I-78, I-81, I-83, I-695 (west of Baltimore), I-95 and MD 212. 178 truck miles. 518 cumulative tow miles. 567 cumulative truck miles.

This hop was almost entirely on interstate highways. That was a last-minute change as I had originally opted for a shorter route using US 202. But I was unsure, so I let the GPS decide.

There was a lot of construction but, fortunately, no real delays. It was an uneventful trip where the truck once again ran with high oil pressure (though not quite so high as on the first two hops – mostly running around 90 psi).

The roads were also *very* busy which I found a bit surprising for a Wednesday early afternoon in a pandemic.

Our one night in PA was at the Pine Hill RV Park in Kutztown. This is a good transient park with mostly pull-through sites. It is close by I-78, so there is a bit of road noise but we barely noticed it with the windows closed (it was a cool night). It is in a rural setting and the only time I left was to refuel, so I don’t have any opinion about the surrounding area.
