This is a textbook I-95 run down the Atlantic seaboard through Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and the Carolinas into Florida, about three to five days, with the Gulf side branching to I-75 near Lake City. Fall southbound and spring northbound are the peaks, so book two to three weeks ahead during the rush. Clear EZ-Pass transponders before pickup so the carrier is not billed at I-95 toll points.
