In 1998 Pennsyltuckie was awarded title to the worst interstates in the U.S.
by a Truckdriver magazine. Following year it got the award for Most

sound pretty rough and I haven't been to East Texas, but Pennsyltuckies got
some mighty questionalbe roads to be wearing that red white and blue emblaem.
