The stinkiest road in America!!!!!
 
I-78 From north of Harrisburg, PA to Allentown, PA!!!!

HAS TO be the most disgusting smelling road in the USA!!
Along the journey, you can expect to smell play-dough, hog sh*t, rotten moldy smelling dog food, rotten cow parts from a slaughter house and numerous other scents.
Dont get me wrong, I can 'tolerate' "country air". I actually enjoy the smell of cow manure (seriously), but this road is just too much!

Not to mention, I really hope your air ride seat works!! Talk about a washboard!
Then if your lucky, and you can ride the hammer lane for a while (the less of a washboard), you'll be delighted to hit a few certain spots in the road that nearly throw your truck onto it's side.
WTF!!
Oh yeah, 55mph speed limit is unreasonable too!
Ok, rant over. I feel better now. :lol:

The New Jersey turnpike definitely has it's odors.

I-95 near Brunswick, GA - gotta love the smell of the paper mill

you forgot to add the smell of kraft making a1, mixing with sam adams brewing hops. should smell wonderful, barbeque and beer, but something got lost when they met on 100. must have been the secret ingredient of idle from all the trucks in wawa. :roll: :?

Any paper mill nearby is horrible. Smells like some really bad coffee brewing. Westvaco puts off a rough smell over near Covington, Va.

We deliver on a normal basis to AFR in Fairmont, WV. This is a pulp mill (they take paper and recycle it into pulp). There are times that the backside of that mill smells like raw sewage.

I grew up near Tacoma, WA. They may all be gone now but, used to be a haven for paper and pulp mills! YUCK!! We used to refer to it as... "The sweet aroma of Tacoma!" :lol:

For the first few years, I just thought it was my brother! Talk about your coyote farts!! :shock: :lol:

US71- north of Texarkana- Ashdown, Ar--

paper mill- like Mr.Ford pointed out--- that is a god awful smell of rotten eggs
(sulphur)

and those cattle stockyards along I-80 Big Springs, Ne actually any stockyards that near the highway-- actually worse smelling.

how about the worse smelling truckstop parking lots? the one's where the driver's empty out their urine bottles on the hot ashault- letting the H20 evaporate- leaving behind all the bio-hazard bacteria, salts, etc-- and seems like it can never rain enough to wash that smell away!

Wow, 78 is a good one, and I live nearby too.
Westvaco stinks like other paper mills, did pickups there when I ran for Roehl.
Rt 222 near Reading PA gets the mushroom smell sometimes.

I-10 in NM...east of Las Cruces when the wind is blowing from the south. All those feed lots there are just "devine"..... :shock: :x Ugggghhhhhh!! Makes you want to "hurl"!!
