There is some construction on 80 in Nevada (there's always construction on I-80 in Nevada ...) but if you get there at the right time, there's minimal, if any, delay. Nevada DOT should be able to provide times when the lanes are split and delays begin. If there's a delay, it shouldn't be much.

Safe travels and plan for at least four, long days of windshield time.

If I take the northern route,Is it better to take 70 from Denver or just stay on 80 and take 74 southeast to 70? Either way, yeah it's gonna be a long haul! Its about time I can put my new Duramax to the test
