Driven I-70 many times.  It's just the meth highway now.  Washington, PA; where I-70 and I-79 meet has become a hotbed for that very reason.

My most oft driven Interstate is I-75 south from Cincy.  Parts of it are somewhat interesting, but mostly it's just hilly and you can get behind trucks in both lanes at times.  There is a stretch just into TN that badly needs a third lane as it climbs up a mountain (Jellico Mtn).

That would be a fantastic drive with less traffic.
71 from Columbus to Cincinnati is awful.

First is the Columbus ghetto, then the jail, then the sewage treatment plant, then Grove City, then a sign that says that you are going to Hell, then a bunch of stinky farms, then the Klan barn, then a really out of place scenic gorge, then the Cincinnati ghetto.

Lovely drive.

Glad the last time we drove to Nashville, that stretch was in the dark.  Don't mind south from Detroit through Dayton, to Cincinnati.  And Columbus, straight across to Indianapolis is tolerable, it's just that 80 minute stretch that I can't do again.

But you get to see the Eiffel Tower (well at least a third scale replica). And don't say anything bad about Grove City, I actually graduated from high school there a long time ago.
