Mostly much the same as going through Nebraska(without the Lakes), Iowa has a few more rolling hills, with a lot of fields of either corn or soy beans. I cross the Mississippi River from Iowa into Illinois and the speed limit for trucks drops to 55mph, giving me a $5 per hour pay cut from a 65mph state. (Only California, Illinois, Oregon, and Ohio still have a 55mph speed limit for trucks and it costs us truck drivers money) Illinois is pretty flat traveling and a lot of Chicago Metro traffic just before entering Indiana. Toll road across Indiana at 65mph, and Toll road across Ohio at 65mph (only place in Ohio where trucks can exceed 55mph as an incentive to get us to travel the toll roads and not clog up the old back roads)
Keep on Truckin
